King County Metro Transit bus routes will operate with a Sunday schedule on the Fourth of July for Independence Day, and many routes will be redirected around community celebrations around the county. Changes also are in store for the South Lake Union Streetcar and water taxis.

The holiday schedule means many commuter bus routes will not be in service that day. Bus riders should check the schedule for their routes, as well as scheduled event and celebration reroutes. Sunday fares are in effect on all Metro routes on July 4.

All Metro offices, including the Customer Information phone lines, will be closed on Thursday in observance of the holiday. When the Customer Information Office is closed, most transit information and the trip planner are available on Metro Online.
