Cap Hill Crowd Sourcing: Friday bus information

Consider this your Friday morning, crowd-source Capitol Hill transportation bulletin. With all due respect to the officer and the department Friday’s memorial procession honors, there is a lot of confusion about transportation in the Capitol Hill area as the streets will be blocked and Metro’s buses delayed and rerouted. Metro’s bulletin on the service disruptions lacks specifics and the promised reroute information has not been posted as of 10:45 PM. It’s for a good cause — we’ll just need to make the best of it. UPDATE: Seattle Transit Blog has reroute info.

So, why not harness social media for something a little more useful? Might still leave this post in place given likelihood things won’t be smooth. Please post your experiences, questions and tips here in the comments or to Twitter with the hashtag #caphillbus so they automagically appear in the post.


Metro Bulletin
Expect significant delays and some transit reroutes during this time.

Affected buses may be delayed at other points along their routes as well.

If your Friday travel plans take you through these areas, give yourself plenty of time, travel before 8:00 AM or after 1:00 PM, or be prepared for significant delays.

Metro will not be able to tell you when specific buses will arrive at or depart from specific locations.

Additional information, including planned reroutes and a Queen Anne Hill shuttle, is being prepared and will be available online at www.kingcounty.gov/metro by Thursday evening.
