Community Transit

February 2013 Service Changes

Community Transit schedules will change on Feb. 18, 2013. At that time some routes will have minor changes, and some trips will be added on commuter routes between south Snohomish County and Seattle/UW. These changes are funded by a federal grant and state matching money, at no extra cost to the transit agency.

The route changes are:

Route 112 (Ash Way Park & Ride – Mountlake Terrace Transit Center)

Route 112 buses will be routed to serve the Lynnwood Transit Center to improve connections with other buses.

Route 112 northbound buses will enter Lynnwood Transit Center from 200th Street, then will exit via 48th Avenue and turn right onto 194th Street before returning to 44th Avenue. Southbound buses will use the same route in reverse. This change not only improves connections with other buses at the transit center, but provides all-day service to some key locations off of 44th Avenue.

Route 417 (Mukilteo – Downtown Seattle)

Route 417 buses will no longer travel on Highway 99 and 44^th Avenue W, north of 196^th Street in Lynnwood. Instead, buses will take Highway 525 from Mukilteo to I-5, then get off at 196^th Street before serving the Lynnwood Transit Center via 200^th. Northbound routing will be the reverse. This change will provide a downtown Seattle commuter bus with east-west Route 196 by the Lynnwood Convention Center.

Route 885 (Lynnwood – UW)

Route 885 will be eliminated and all three trips will be replaced with trips on Route 880. The two routes currently serve much of same corridor, except that Route 880 does not serve the Lynnwood Transit Center. Riders wishing to travel between UW and the Lynnwood Transit Center can take Routes 810, 821 or 855.
