Transit Alert Update - Transit service will be rerouted off portions of 23rd Av S during a civic event on 6/12

On Friday, June 12, from 1:00 to 8:00 PM, Metro routes 4 and 48 will be rerouted off portions of 23rd Av S during a civic march between Judkins Park and Jefferson Park.

Other events may also take place in other parts of Metro's service area.

During the Judkins Park to Jefferson Park event, routes 4 and 48 will travel instead via alternate nearby streets.

Transit riders are advised to expect possible service delays on all bus routes and service in the general area of any civic events.

Transit service during civic events
In areas where there are crowds, traffic or events disrupting normal travel patterns or activities, transit riders are advised to be aware of conditions in their immediate vicinity – such as street closures, traffic and detours - and be prepared for delays or to make revisions in travel plans, such as using a different stop or route according to specific circumstances. 

Depending on the time and the nature of such events, Metro may not be able to provide real time information or service updates via email or text.  Event start and end times and other details may be subject to change.

Visit Metro’s Service Advisories page for information about revised bus service, routing and stops for planned construction or events.  Transit reroute start and end times may be subject to change.

Visit Metro’s online regional Puget Sound Trip Planner to plan travel on transit, and for bus stop, schedule and other information, including predicted times at stops. Real time information in customer information systems may not be available or accurate in areas where service is disrupted due to reroutes or delays.

Continuing COVID considerations
Metro has implemented coach capacity guidelines that could result in longer waits for some riders. Be sure to allow plenty of time for your trip.

In accordance with King County public health directives and guidelines, and for the safety of all transit riders and employees:

• Please wear a mask or face covering. Cover coughs and sneezes. 
• Maintain 6 feet of distance from others in all public spaces, including while onboard transit vehicles and at transit stops and stations.
• Board and exit buses through the back door if possible. 
• Observe and abide by signs and decals.

Thank you for following health and safety guidelines.

Travel safely.
