New coach. New conference. New opponents. One thing isn’t changing: transit is the easiest way to Husky Stadium to root on the Purple and the Gold!

Coach Jedd Fisch will lead the University of Washington Huskies into its first season as a member of the Big Ten conference with a game against the Weber State Wildcats August 31. Plan your trips this season to root for the Dawgs against Northwestern, USC, UCLA and getting some payback against defending National Champion Michigan. You have lots of options for leaving your car at home and taking transit to and from games.

Fans can ride Metro shuttles from three Eastside park-and-ride lots, as well as contracted non-Metro shuttles from some park & ride lots. You can also jump on the Sound Transit Link light rail 1 Line, riding Metro buses that connect with Link. There are also regular Metro bus service that travels near Husky Stadium.

 

Dawgs on the Bus
There are routes that will take you to Sound Transit Link light rail, which has four new stations on the 1 Line that open on Aug. 30 that will bring you right to the stadium. There are also ONE DOZEN (12) Metro routes that will bring you a short distance from the stadium—just follow the purple and the gold!

Park-and-Ride express shuttle bus service
Metro buses will operate express shuttle service on Husky home game days from three designated park and ride lots:

  • Eastgate Park-and-Ride
  • Kingsgate Park-and-Ride
  • South Kirkland Park-and-Ride

With the purchase of a UW season bus pass or UW game day bus pass, fans can park in the park-and-ride lots and travel stress-free to and from Husky Stadium. For riders with a season bus pass, shuttle service is also available at the Redondo and Shoreline park-and-rides.

After the game, pass holders can board buses in front of the stadium for the return trip.
