Due to a planned protest on Saturday, October 19, 2025, METRO routes in Downtown Santa Cruz and Watsonville may experience detours and delays. Please plan extra travel time and track your bus in real time using the Transit App.
ROUTE CHANGE
Weekdays/Weekends: To serve Aptos Village, the route will run along Soquel Dr between Freedom Blvd and State Park Dr instead of Highway 1. As a result, trip departure and arrival times have been adjusted along the route.
Weekdays: Will operate every two hours rather than every one hour and forty minutes.
Additional route-specific schedule changes between Summer and Fall schedules - Routes not specifically mentioned below will continue to operate the same schedule as Summer 2025 Service. Riders are advised to review all the route changes below and view the new schedules and maps to see the changes in detail.
