New signs for new times

King County Metro Transit is looking to simplify travel for bus riders with new signs that are easier to see, read, and use. This week, you can help Metro by checking out prototype bus stop signs in downtown Seattle and fill out a survey expressing your likes and dislikes about the new signs.


Metro's prototype sign offers a new look.

The prototype signs are on Third Avenue, between Union and University streets, next to Benaroya Hall. The display will be in place through at least the end of this week.

“We are hoping people will check out these signs and see if they provide the information they need to ride our buses,” said Gary Larson, chief of Information Production for Metro. "The signs include the main destinations for each bus route, larger route numbers, the location of the bus stop, symbols for connecting transportation modes like the airport and rail, and Metro's Rider Information number and Web site address."
