associated with Sunday's Seahawks game and Tuesday's New Year's Eve
festivities

Be sure to check your route's timetable, including planning for the return
trip. 

Even if service is affected by street closures, temporary reroutes or
delays, riding transit is still a great way to get to events and activities
where there is often traffic congestion and limited parking.  Buses that are
rerouted around events still usually travel close to their regular route.

Temporary service disruptions are not reflected in Trip Planner itineraries.
Look for 'Alert!' icons in trip planning results and the

Three weekend downtown tunnel closures 
Additionally, there will be three weekend closures of all Link stations in
the downtown Seattle Transit Tunnel on January 4-5, February 8-9 and March
14-15. 

On these weekends, Link shuttle buses will take riders in both directions
between SODO and Capitol Hill and all intermediate stations, as they did
during two previous weekend closures in October.

Transit service during unexpected or civic events
In areas where there are crowds, traffic, weather or civic events - whether
scheduled or unexpected - disrupting normal travel patterns or activities,
transit riders are advised to be aware of conditions in their immediate
vicinity, such as street closures, detours, police directions, etc., and be
prepared for delays or to make revisions to travel plans, such as using a
different bus stop or a different route, based on specific circumstances.

During these kinds of events, be prepared for unexpectedly revised traffic
or routing, and for delays in transit service. Transit riders are encouraged
to know the alternate stops or routes that may be near their starting points
and destinations.

Depending on the time and the nature of such events, Metro may not be able
to provide real-time information or service updates via email or text.
Event start and end times and other details may be subject to change.
