Transit Alert – Route 165 to the Burien Transit Center will be rerouted off Kent Des Moines Rd between Military Rd S and Pacific Hwy S tonight

Overnight on Wednesday, February 23, from 10:30 PM until 4:00 AM Thursday morning, Metro Route 165 will be rerouted off of westbound Kent Des Moines Rd between Military Rd S and Pacific Hwy S, due to construction.

During this time, Route 165 heading toward the Burien Transit Center will travel instead via Military Rd S, S 216th St and Pacific Hwy S, and will not serve the stop westbound on Kent Des Moines Rd at the I-5 ramp.  Riders may board or exit at the regular stops at the Kent Des Moines Park-and-Ride, or southbound on Pacific Hwy S just south of Kent Des Moines Rd.

Route 165 heading toward Green River College is not affected and will serve all its regular stops.

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

Visit Metro’s online regional Puget Sound Trip Planner to plan your travel, and for bus stop, schedule and other information, including predicted times at stops.  We recommend riders to arrive at their bus stop at least 5 minutes before the scheduled departure time.

Please observe and abide by posted information and directions for the safety of all transit riders and employees:

• Wear a mask at all times.
• Board at the front door and pay your fare.
• Tapping your ORCA card is the fastest and healthiest way to pay.
• Find types of fares and ways to pay.
• Stay home if you are sick.
• Observe and abide by directions provided by posted signs and decals.
• Watch for new or changing information.
