2 bus notes: Sound Transit changes, Metro fare increase reminder

SOUND TRANSIT: Route 560, which includes West Seattle, is one of the routes with changes to come, in part because of ST light rail, so a public-comment meeting has just been set for Feb. 25, 5-7 pm, Senior Center of West Seattle in The Junction. Read more about it here.

METRO RATE INCREASE: This Sunday is the day that Metro Transit fares go up a quarter. See the new fare schedule in its entirety here.

Depending on where you live, the bus is becoming a less viable mode of transport for saving money.

I suppose that’s true if you received your car for free and don’t have to pay for maintenance. I don’t drive any more but I could ride the bus for the next twenty years and not spend close to what I’ve spent on cars in the last ten.

So does anyone know… I can’t figure it out or see on the metro site…. if I have an annual $2.00 pass and the fare now goes to 2.25, will they honor my annual peak one zone pass all year as in the past or no?

thanks! cleat

Sorry, comment time is over.
