Metro Launching All-Door Bus Boarding as Part of Spring Service Change

King County Metro is implementing systemwide all-door bus boarding starting Saturday, March 28, along with its spring service change that adds earlier morning trips, later evening service, and more weekend options. The policy change comes as Metro strengthens connections to Sound Transit’s new 2 Line extension between Seattle and the Eastside, and the agency has invested $5 million in ORCA card readers at every bus door to enable tap-and-pay boarding at all entry points.
