Starting 10/1/12, Solid Ground began providing FREE rides on our Downtown Circulator Bus for people living on low incomes and those who access health and human services in the downtown area.

Two buses – one seating 19 people, the other 23 – run a fixed 4.5 mile route, Mondays through Fridays, stopping at each of the seven stops about every 30 minutes.

The first bus departs Stop #1 (Harborview Medical Center at 325 9th Ave, 98104) at 7 am, driving in a clockwise route through town. The last bus departs Stop #1 at 4 pm. The stops are identified by a sticker affixed to the standard Metro bus stop signs.

Hours of service and location of stops are subject to change.

This is a pilot project. For the latest Circulator route information, call 206.753.4801 or check this webpage.
