Press Release:
In observance of Memorial Day, King County Metro Transit will operate a Sunday schedule on Monday, May 30. Metro offices - including the Customer Information, pass sales and lost and found offices - will be closed on Monday. If your bus does not normally operate on Sunday, it will not operate on Monday.

The West Seattle Water Taxi will operate a Sunday schedule on Memorial Day, as will DART Shuttle routes 773 and 775; the Vashon Water Taxi will not operate on Monday. Both the South Lake Union Streetcar and Sound Transit's Link light rail will operate a Sunday schedule. Sounder trains will not operate on Monday.

In addition to the holiday, there are lots of events over this long weekend. While all traffic could experience delays in event areas, such as Seattle Center and SODO, transit is an excellent option for getting to and from weekend activities. Transit service is often able to take advantage of lanes or travel corridors that are restricted to general purpose traffic. There is lots of transit service to and from this weekend's major event areas.

Mariners & Soccer
- The next Mariners home stand is Friday, May 27 through Sunday, June 5.
- Mexico v. Ecuador soccer is at Qwest Field on Saturday, May 28.

Nearly all the transit service operated by Metro and its regional partners that travels to downtown Seattle goes to within walking distance of the sports stadiums in SODO. Much of that service operates on the SODO Busway, along the Link light rail corridor or in the Downtown Seattle Transit Tunnel, separate from general purpose traffic congestion, and most of it also serves park and ride lots where fans can park free, or transfer points with other service.

Regular fares apply.

All fans are encouraged to ride transit to and from stadium events.
