Sound Transit March service change includes added trips on multiple ST
Express routes
Link light rail, Tacoma Link and Sounder to continue on current schedules
Publish Date
March 4, 2021
Service changes for Sound Transit's ST Express bus service taking effect
this month will add trips to multiple routes, and make schedule adjustments
to
select routes to improve reliability. The Star Lake park-and-ride lot will
also close for construction of Federal Way Link.
Sound Transit's updated March 2021 service schedule begins on Saturday,
March 20, for Link light rail and ST Express bus routes operated by King
County
Metro. It begins on Sunday, March 21 for ST Express bus routes operated by
Community Transit or Pierce Transit, and Monday, March 22, for Sounder train
and Tacoma Link light rail.
Changes on ST Express routes include:
510: Adding four daily trips, adjusting timing of some trips to meet demand,
and reducing scheduled travel times to reflect current traffic levels.
511: Reducing scheduled travel times to reflect current traffic levels.
512: Adding four Saturday trips, increasing Sunday afternoon service to
approx. every 15 min., and adjusting travel times to reflect current traffic
levels.
513: Eliminating one southbound trip due to low ridership and reducing
scheduled travel times to reflect current traffic levels.
522: Restoring five trips to return to pre-pandemic service level.
532: Adding two southbound morning trips and eliminating one afternoon
northbound trip.
566: Adjusting times to better match Sounder schedule at Kent Station.
577: New alignment through Downtown Seattle in northbound direction. All
trips (weekdays and weekends) terminate at Eastlake Ave./Thomas St.,
operating
via 4th Ave., Olive Way and Howell St. (parallel to Route 578).
586: Adding stop at Federal Way Transit Center in both directions.
590: Adjusting schedules on northbound trips to coordinate with Route 595's
new service to Tacoma Dome Station.
595: Adding stop at Tacoma Dome to replace temporarily suspended Pierce
Transit Route 102 (Downtown Tacoma-Gig Harbor), and to increase
Tacoma-Seattle
capacity.
Because of travel time differences and changes to coordinate frequencies on
routes, additional ST Express routes may be affected. Passengers on all
routes
should check schedules for changes.
Link light rail
Due to a variety of constraints, including operator availability and
Northgate Link testing, Link light rail will continue running every 12 to 15
minutes.
Sounder and Tacoma Link service remains unchanged.
Additional service change information can be found on
the service change page of the Sound Transit website.
Due to the potential of COVID-19 to affect transit, service levels are
subject to change. For the most up-to-date schedules, visit our
current schedules page.
