TRANSIT TODAY

Metro buses – Regular schedules.

West Seattle Water TaxiRegular West Seattle service, last week of winter schedule, which changes to spring/summer schedule this weekend.

Washington State Ferries – Continuing today, the Triangle Route has a schedule change:

As of Saturday, April 4, the Fauntleroy/Vashon/Southworth route is running a two-boat schedule with a third, unscheduled boat for about two weeks. The Salish is running as the third, unscheduled vessel to help move additional traffic and keep the #1 Kittitas and #2 Cathlamet on schedule.

The route will return to its regular three-boat schedule by late April, when we have another vessel repaired and returned to service.

Check WSF’s alert page for last-minute changes.

SPOTLIGHT TRAFFIC CAMERAS

High Bridge – Here’s the main camera, followed by the Fauntleroy-end camera:
