Northward and southward routes using the Downtown Seattle Transit Tunnel are not through-routed, as planned prior to construction. Northward routes originate at International District, while southward routes originate at Convention Place. Vehicle-occupancy statistics include only those buses continuing beyond Convention Place (northward) or International District (southward), and do not include terminating buses.
