SHORELINE — A portion of a retaining wall has collapsed in a tunnel that leads to the Metro Transit base in Shoreline.

Nobody was hurt in the collapse Saturday. Crews are investigating the cause, and it’s unknown if Saturday’s heavy rain was a factor.

The Department of Transportation told KING-TV that the tunnel is used only by Metro buses. The buses have other routes into the facility, and passengers won’t be affected.

Some sections of the high-occupancy vehicle lanes were closed nearby.
