Local route cuts:

• 306X and 312X - It appears that these routes are shortened to go from Lake City to downtown and all the runs to and from UW Bothell, Kenmore and Lake Forest Park are cancelled

Service will be canceled on 28 routes and another 13 will be reduced or revised. Riders should visit the Metro website to review the September cuts and reductions and begin to assess daily travel plans for later this fall.
