New service for growing areas

The suburban areas of King County have grown rapidly in the past 20 years. With Transit Now, Metro will increase service to these growing residential areas by adding peak-hour-only service in some areas that currently have limited or no service and by adding midday service in some areas that currently have peak service only. Some of the areas in East and South King County that have been identified for possible new or expanded service include:

Covington
Duvall
Issaquah
Maple Valley
Redmond Ridge
Sammamish
Snoqualmie

What’s happening now

Metro will begin outreach later this year with elected officials and local jurisdictions to identify areas eligible for new service. Once the areas have been identified, Metro will work with communities to determine the specific services that will be implemented in those areas using a yet-to-be-adopted phasing plan for service startup.
