King County Metro pilots new Throne public restrooms at Aurora Village, Burien transit centers
 Riders who need to use a restroom have new accessible, secure facilities at Aurora Village and Burien transit centers as part of a pilot project with Throne Labs.
The restrooms are accessible for people using mobility devices and available 24/7 at these locations by using an app, text message, or tap card.
Metro developed this regional pilot with Throne Labs, the Seattle Department of Transportation, and Pierce Transit to trial an innovative approach to providing safe, clean, and reliably accessible public restrooms.
The new restrooms measure 7-feet wide by 8-feet long and replace the previous plastic portable toilets that had been in place since January 2024. With the new units, Throne manages access, accountability for appropriate use, routine cleaning, and maintenance. The units are climate controlled with more than 21 sensors to detect smoke, usage, supply levels, and send an alert if there are security concerns.
For more information about how to use the new restrooms check out the Metro Matters blog.
