Transportation Options

UPrep is conveniently located close to several regular Metro bus routes, including the 372, 65, 62, 79, and 73. Metro route 79 provides a direct connection to the Roosevelt Light Rail Station.

UPrep partners with Lakeside School and The Evergreen School to provide specially designed Metro bus routes that our students can use traveling to and from school. Our Custom Metro Buses run on the same schedule every day that UPrep has classes. The Custom Metro Bus pass (Orca card) purchased from UPrep is a two-zone card, good for a student’s Custom Metro bus route and for regular Metro, Community Transit, and Sound Transit (Link Light Rail) transportation.

The Custom Metro Bus program serves the following neighborhoods (routes vary year-to-year based on ridership levels):

• Route 982: Evergreen Pt., Yarrow Pt., Clyde Hill, Overlake, Bear Creek
• Route 986: Montlake, Evergreen Pt., Yarrow Pt., S. Kirkland, Houghton
• Route 987: Roosevelt Light Rail Station, Mount Baker, Seward Park, Rainier Beach
• Route 988: UW Light Rail Station, Montlake, Madison Valley, Miller Park, Madrona
• Route 989: Mercer Island, Eastgate, Somerset, Factoria
• Route 994: Ballard, Interbay, Lower Queen Anne, Downtown

Many families form carpools and, once enrolled, our school information system allows you to search for families near you.

Many UPrep students choose to bicycle to campus. UPrep provides secure bicycle rack parking. A bicycle repair station with tools and an air pump is available for students at the bicycle rack.

UPrep provides limited, free on-campus parking, including spaces in a designated lot for 11th and 12th grade students, on a first come, first served basis. There is also ample street parking in the surrounding neighborhood.
