As our region responds to COVID-19 and budget constraints, Metro will continue to:

provide a strong and resilient transit system, and

monitor and respond to evolving rider demands and trends.

Starting Sept. 19, 2020, our twice-yearly service change will bring adjustments to the transit system. Due to budget constraints, Metro will operate reduced service in certain areas. Please visit our Service Change webpage for more details.

We’re committed to prioritizing our customers who rely on transit most and will debut key improvements for south King County. Please visit our Quick Start Guide for new ways to travel within these expanded transit zones in Renton, Kent, and Auburn. If your route is canceled, you can see travel options planners have identified in your area.
