Transportation and Parking

Mass transit in Seattle is run by King County Metro, which offers discounts for qualifying recipients, including students, through Orca Lift—up to half the cost of the fare.

Mass transit also runs throughout most of the Puget Sound Area. There’s even a bus line to take you to the Olympic Peninsula. Or take a ferry and check out the islands using the island metro system, or use it to go hiking on the area’s many beautiful trail systems.

The AUS campus is within five blocks of major bus lines. If you’re bussing to campus, consider downloading the One Bus Away app for smartphones or use the desktop version to keep track of arrival/departure times in the Puget Sound area.

If mass transit isn’t your thing, street parking and lot parking are available. Antioch also has limited spaces available underneath the building. There are spaces for visitors with disabilities located near the basement elevator for easy access to the second floor of the building.

Monthly parking passes may be a good option for you if you spend most of the day most days a week on campus. If you’re interested in a pass, you must fill out an online application. Passes are available for two locations:

Garage at 3rd and Battery (33 spaces available; $293.04 per month)

Outdoor lot at 4th and Battery (24 spaces available; $201.47 per month)
