Service Change Information

Every day, changes occur to King County roads, businesses and communities that impact our transportation network. That's why Metro has three service changes per year and makes other adjustments as necessary. We want to help make your bus trips as fast and convenient as possible, and deliver service you can count on and appreciate.

Metro posts and distributes Special Rider Alerts that summarize the three service changes. Other service adjustment information may be found here.

Metro's next service change is May 31, 2008

To see Special Rider Alerts from past service changes, select 'Archive' from the left navigation bar, then select a year.

How does a service change happen?

Eighteen months of planning goes into a service change, with a great deal of input from Metro Sounding Boards. Watch this three minute video clip from September 2003:
