King County receives new $80 million federal grant for I Line, expanding Metro’s RapidRide service to Renton, Kent and Auburn

King County Executive Dow Constantine joined the Federal Transit Administration, King County Metro and other partners to celebrate the signing of an $80 million federal grant to build the I Line, the newest RapidRide route set to connect more cities in South King County including Renton, Kent and Auburn.

The RapidRide I Line, scheduled to begin service in 2027, will enhance the current Route 160, formerly Route 169 and 180, between Auburn Station and downtown Renton. RapidRide lines deliver quick, efficient and reliable service, and carry more riders than any other Metro bus routes.

*Check out the full project page for RapidRide I Line [ https://www.rapidrideiline.com/?lng=en ].*

By investing in RapidRide, Metro is building a future where transportation is accessible, efficient and equitable for all, making it easier than ever to move throughout the region.
