Following focused effort to improve community safety in Little Saigon by Seattle and King County law enforcement and social service agencies, King County Metro soon will reopen four bus stops near 12th Avenue South and South Jackson Street.
Routes 1, 7, 9, 14, 36, 60 and 106 will begin serving the four stops on Monday, March 3. Customer notifications will be posted at both the affected and nearby bus stops. We appreciate the patience of riders during the temporarily shift of service to nearby bus stops.
Since the stops closed December 16, Metro has partnered with the King County Sheriff’s Office, Metro Transit Police and the Seattle Police Department to improve public safety and reduce the number of people congregating near the bus stops at 12th and Jackson.
Metro’s service advisories table shows alternate stop locations that remain in effect through March 2 and more information about this change on the Metro Matters blog.

Supervisor Spotlight
 It takes a lot of people to keep a transit system running smoothly across 150 routes and over 300,000 boardings a day.
Bus drivers are the most visible part of any transit system, but there are people behind the scenes who are just as vital in the day-to-day operation of King County Metro.
Their responsibilities include training operators, planning the routes that run throughout the region, and literally being the “traffic controllers” who keep track of the buses on their daily runs.
We’d like to introduce you to the staff that help keep the wheels on the bus going “round and round” every day, Instructors Kevin Friend and Titus Robinson.
