Sound Transit: Proposed Service Changes - provide your feedback today.

As part of the potential express bus changes for Fall 2026, Sound Transit is proposing to eliminate Route 554, which services Issaquah, and shorten and enhance Route 556. What Does This Mean For Passengers? Passengers who currently ride the 554 can use improved Route 556 frequency to connect with the 2 Line for service to Seattle or Redmond at South Bellevue and Bellevue Downtown stations. Route 556 would arrive about every 15 minutes for most of the day; the 2 Line would provide service every 8-15 minutes. Riders taking Route 556 to the University District could transfer at South Bellevue to the 2 Line, or at Bellevue Downtown to King County Metro Route 270 to continue to the University District. 2 Line trains would arrive about every 8-15 minutes. Route 270 would arrive about every 15 minutes between 6 a.m. and 7 p.m. Route 556 would also serve new stops in Issaquah, including on Sunset Way and Gilman Boulevard.
