Beginning Saturday, a number of changes take effect on local bus routes – funded in part by passage of Seattle’s Proposition 1 last November, which adds 110,000 hours to dozens of routes in the city.
The easiest way to determine if this affects you is to use this online tool provided by King County Metro.
For example, for Maple Leaf’s popular Route 41, the tool advises:
On weekday evenings, seven southbound trips to downtown Seattle and seven northbound trips to Lake City will be added.
On Saturday, five southbound and eight northbound trips will be added.
On Sunday, two morning and two evening southbound and northbound trips will be added.
These changes will improve service frequency to about every 15 minutes on weekdays and Saturday. Early morning and evening service frequency will improve to about every 30 minutes.
If you’re a regular bus rider and want to flag Maple Leaf changes, please do so in comments.
