Seattle’s Metro bus system provides efficient connections throughout the Puget Sound area. Metro buses run 6 a.m.-1 a.m. every day, about every 30 minutes on the city routes. Customer service offices are at 821 2nd Ave. and in the Westlake Station. Fares cost $1.25 off-peak, $1.50 peak within the city; or $1.25 off-peak and $2 peak if you ride through two zones (beyond Seattle city limits). For $2.50 on weekends, you can purchase a pass that gives you unlimited rides on Metro buses and the streetcars; get them from the bus driver when you board. Call 206-553-3000 or 800-542-7876 for route information and other details. All Metro buses carry bikes at no extra charge, but bikes are not carried within the Ride Free area of downtown.
