Effective immediately, Metro will no longer provide buses to law enforcement traveling to demonstrations or protests. Our core mission is to serve the public. This decision reflects that mission.

Masks are still required on King County Metro. A federal judge in Florida ruled against the transit mask mandate, there may be an appeal from the Justice Department that could lead to delayed implementation or for the decision to be altered or overruled.

It is not appropriate for a transit agency to deliver high numbers of law enforcement officers to a demonstration or protest. To the those who held us accountable for transporting law enforcement in the early days of the demonstrations: We heard you.

Capt. Dan has been with the Marine Division from the very start. His skills and the skills of the Water Taxi crew are on display every day, and were definitely needed on that windy November day!

The six-story barge was a monster next to Captain Dan Krehbiel's water taxi. His quick thinking prevented massive property damage and possibly injuries.

Whale, whale, whale, what do we have here? A fluke sighting of some Southern Resident killer whales spotted from the Vashon Island Water Taxi this morning! Fun! (Yes, we know orcas aren't technically whales, we made that joke on porpoise. Happy Monday!)

1/4 Pacific Northwest folks, since we’ve got a lot of snow, it’s time to #ShovelYourBusStop ! I live on a @kcmetrobus snow emergency route, so I had some fun shoveling out this westbound RapidRide F stop in Tukwila, even had a compatriot bus rider who helped before his bus arrived
