TRANSIT TODAY

Metro buses – Regular schedules.

West Seattle Water Taxi – Now on “summer” schedule, with extra Friday/Saturday/Sunday runs including later-night schedules Fridays and Saturdays.

Washington State Ferries – Fauntleroy/Vashon/Southworth route still on a two-boat schedule with a third, unscheduled boat, but was canceling some very early-am sailings today, so check WSF’s alert page for updates. That’s also where you’ll find a summary of fare changes starting Friday (May 1). And note work at the Fauntleroy dock this week could affect ferry users.
