Ride2 in West Seattle

Ride2 provides on-demand rides to and from Metro buses at the Alaska Junction and the Water Taxi at Seacrest Park! Standard Metro fares will apply for a one-way ride on Ride2 — meaning, if using an ORCA card, you will pay one fare and transfer to a Metro bus without any additional fare.

Book a ride on-demand with the Ride2 Transit app or by calling 855-233-1880.

Via to Transit

Via to Transit is a convenient shuttle service to & from light rail stations in SE Seattle & Tukwila. Via to Transit lets you request on-demand shuttle vans to and from five Sound Transit Link stations: Mount Baker, Columbia City, Othello, Rainier Beach, and Tukwila International Boulevard. The service costs and works the same as transferring to or from a Metro bus with an ORCA card.

Download the Via app or call 206-258-7739 to request a ride.
