This page only shows planned buses replacing trains schedules.
During unplanned disruptions, bus service information will be included in the service alert. (external link)
Bus stop locations are listed at the bottom of this page.
Website train timetables do not show bus departure times.
Train timetables will highlight affected trips in pink, but actual bus departure times may differ from train times due to station access and road traffic. See bus replacement timetable (PDF) for bus departure times.
Metlink can't guarantee that buses replacing trains will have a bike rack, because non-Metlink buses are often used for replacement services.
