King County Metro Transit Instruction Program for Seniors and people with disabilities
Tuesday, September 17, 2024
Using public transportation can feel challenging or frightening for many people.
In an effort to help seniors and people with disabilities gain confidence and learn ridership skills, the Shoreline Lake Forest Park Senior Activity Center welcomes King County Metro for a group instruction program that aims to introduce independent bus riding!
You will learn to safely and confidently use public transportation. Participants will learn about paying bus fare, using an Orca card, how to find bus stops, how to communicate with the driver, how to exit at the correct stop and general problem solving during your time riding the bus.

I take the buses every day as I choose not to drive with all the traffic. I go all over north King County, Snohomish, Island and Skagit counties... all via public transit (bus, not rail). I highly recommend getting the instruction first. One important tip: Upon boarding, ask the driver to wait until you are seated before resuming (or risk falling). The vast majority of Metro drivers are accommodating.
