Procession for slain officer will disrupt bus service
Posted by John de Leon
King County Metro this morning issued the following advisory warning commuters of the expected impact tomorrow's procession for slain Officer Timothy Brenton will have on bus service:
On Friday, between approximately 8 a.m. and approximately 1 p.m., a Seattle Police memorial procession between Husky Stadium and Key Arena will significantly impact all traffic and travel - including Metro service on many bus routes - in the following areas:
University of Washington / Husky Stadium
Montlake / 24th Av E & 23rd Av E
Capitol Hill / E Madison St, Pine St & Broadway
North of Downtown Seattle / Denny Way & Mercer St
Queen Anne / 1st Av N & Seattle Center
Expect significant delays and some transit reroutes during this time.
Affected buses may be delayed at other points along their routes as well.
If your Friday travel plans take you through these areas, give yourself plenty of time, travel before 8 a.m. or after 1 p.m., or be prepared for significant delays.
Metro will not be able to tell you when specific buses will arrive at or depart from specific locations.
Additional information, including planned reroutes and a Queen Anne Hill shuttle, is being prepared and will be available online by Thursday evening online by clicking here.
