Metro just announced that the ESN is wrapping up at 4am on February 13th. Buses are not returning to normal service, but instead the "snow routes" indicated on many individual route schedules.

Metro expects to operate about 90% of its routes tomorrow. We'll update here as details emerge. Sign up for route alerts to see what's happening with your particular bus, but expect delays, and for OneBusAway data to be garbage.

Rob Gannon says "If weather and road conditions allow, our target is to return to full service on Friday."

UPDATE 7pm: Metro has more details:

Seven routes will have all trips canceled on Wednesday, Feb. 13: 71, 78, 200, 237, 268, 308, 309.

Thirteen routes will have some trips canceled on Wednesday, Feb. 13: 9, 29, 37, 125, 201/204, 208, 224, 243/244, 316, 330, and ST 540.

All Metro morning and afternoon peak commute routes will experience some level of reduced service: an estimated 3 out of every 4 buses will be in service as we work to ramp up service, respond to road conditions and repair our fleet and recover.

Riders: To find out if your particular trip is canceled on Wednesday, text your stop ID to 62550 or check Next Departures on the Puget Sound Trip Planner or its app.
