Presidents’ Day Service (Last Free Day on FHSC)

from Seattle Transit Blog on (#13E2D)

Monday, February 15 is Presidents' Day. The South Lake Union Streetcar is usually open on most holidays, but is closed Monday due to street work, and since there is no "peak" period on a holiday.

The First Hill Streetcar will start charging fares on February 16, so get your free ride in while you can.

Metro will be running a Reduced Weekday and Reduced UW schedule.

The only King County Metro run reductions are for UW classes not being in session for the day. However, after March 19, more riders will be using these routes to get to UW Station before heading downtown. Of the impacted bus routes - routes 31, 32, 48, 65, 67, 68, 75, 167, 197, 271, 277, 331, 372, 373 - most can expect a permanent increase in downtown commuter ridership for minor holidays with U-Link in the mix.

Route 31 has one morning trip cancelled.Route 32 has one afternoon trip cancelled.Route 48 (which will be split in the March service change and get frequency upgrades) has six cancelled trips each way.Route 65 (which will get a major frequency upgrade with the March service change) has six inbound and four outbound trips cancelled.Route 67 (which will get a major frequency upgrade) has two trips cancelled each way.Route 68 (which is being discontinued) has three inbound and six outbound trips cancelled.Route 75 (which will get a major frequency upgrade) has two inbound and one outbound trip cancelled.Route 372 (which will get a major frequency upgrade and weekend service!) has eight inbound and four outbound trips cancelled.Route 373 (which will take over a few peak 73 trips) has three inbound and four outbound trips cancelled, which, in contrast to the other impacted routes, constitutes almost half its trips.

.
Suffice it to say that the UW reductions list for the next minor holiday - Veterans' Day - will bear little resemblance to this UW reductions list.
