New bus routes are in service as part of the county’s Great Seneca Transit Network. On Monday in Rockville, leaders launched the Pink and Lime bus routes, which started operating Sunday.
Gathered at the Traville Gateway Transit Center, county leaders celebrated the launch. The Pink and Lime lines will connect the Shady Grove corridor and the Rio and Downtown Crown areas with the Metro and the Universities at Shady Grove (USG).
Both lines are Ride On extRa routes with endpoints at the Shady Grove Metro and the Traville Gateway Transit Center at USG in Rockville, according to the county. See route details here.
The Pink line goes down Shady Grove Road, and the Lime line is an express route that goes down I-370 and Medical Center Drive. Buses arrive every 10-15 minutes on weekdays and every 30 minutes on weekends.
