King County Metro has begun planning for a RapidRide corridor in Southeast King County, known as the RapidRide I Line. The corridor is identified as Route 1033 in the Metro Connects long-range plan, running from Renton to Auburn via Kent. The corridor would blend together Routes 169 and 180, which together boast over 8,000 daily riders. Metro says that the corridor has a slightly smaller daily ridership of 6,000 daily riders since Route 180 diverges north of central Kent as it runs northwest to SeaTac.
