Outside of the tunnel the special Tunnel Buses
runs on streets and freeways around the Seattle region. One tunnel route
#550 is operated by Seattle Metro, but is funded by Sound Transit, the
regional transit agency. That is why you will find the Breda Tunnel
Busses in 3 paint schemes. The original white/gray for Metro. The newer
Green/Yellow for Metro (an my personal favorite) and the Sound Transit
White/Blue.
As of 2007 the Breda Dual mode busses have been
retired..

is closed on Sundays. (8/00) |

to electric when in the downtown bus tunnel (8/00) |
