Service changes

As part of our September 2023 Service Change (approved in fall 2022), we’re updating schedules and service to improve connections and increase reliability.

  • ST Express 545 will no longer stop at Bellevue Avenue and E Olive Street in Seattle, due to changes at Pike and Pine streets in downtown Seattle. This route will use a temporary stop at Olive Way and Boren Avenue.
  • ST Express 556 will use Bay 5 and Bay 8 at Bellevue Transit Center, when traveling eastbound to Issaquah and westbound to University District, respectively.
  • ST Express 566 will use the bus loop at Redmond Technology Station and Bay 4 when traveling southbound to Auburn. 
  • ST Express 574 will have minor schedule changes and an additional round trip on weekdays, Saturdays, and Sundays.
  • ST Express 580 will now use Bay 2 at South Hill Park-and-Ride lot.
