Bus Stop Updates

Proposed for March 1, 2026

The following bus stop updates will be discussed at the Transportation Commission meeting on Wednesday, January 21, 2026.

  • (Westbound) University at University Bay (2820)

    Stop proposed to be skipped by Routes C and J. 

    • This bus stop is served by Routes C, E, J, R, and 65. The multiple routes serving this stop can cause bus bunching and congestion on University Avenue. 
    • Eliminating the stop for Routes C and J will improve these problems. 
    • Passengers using Routes C and J can use bus stop 2131, northbound University Bay Drive at University Avenue, just around the corner. 
  • (Southbound) Charter at Johnson

    Stop proposed to be closed. 

    • This bus stop, served by Routes 28, 38, and 65, was historically installed for routes that came from the UW campus, southbound, and continued towards Mills Street. 
    • No routes currently use that path. 
    • To serve this bus stop, buses need to make a left turn to Johnson Street from the right lane, an unconventional movement, that has caused concerns. 
    • Passengers using this stop are directed to stop 0743, eastbound Johnson Street at Mills Street, about 550 feet (one block) away.
