The 20 suspended routes come on top of 18 routes put on hold in the pandemic that still haven’t returned.
Graham Johnson, KIRO 7 NewsKING COUNTY, Wash. — King County Metro announced on Thursday it is suspending 20 low-ridership bus routes because it doesn’t have enough drivers and mechanics.To reduce those canceled trips and make service on key routes more reliable, the 20 suspensions will begin on September 2.“Today’s conversation is a challenging one for us because it’s not what we want to do. We want to be in a growth pattern,” King County Metro General Manager Michelle Allison said.
“If our hiring is slow that means our recovery is going to be years down the road, two or three years in recovery,” Price said.In addition to suspending the 20 routes in September, it will reduce service on 12 more. King County Metro says it tried to protect service in places where there are few other options and to lessen the impact on low-income riders and communities of color.
