LYNNWOOD, Wash. — The wait is nearly over: Light rail will arrive in Snohomish County at the end of August, Sound Transit announced in a release on Thursday. , which will serve four stations between Shoreline and Lynnwood, will welcome passengers on Aug. 30. The 8.5-mile light rail extension will add four new stations north of the current 1 Line endpoint at Northgate: Shoreline South/148th, Shoreline North/185th, Mountlake Terrace and Lynnwood City Center.
A map shows the 1 Line from Angle Lake to Lynnwood in green and the 2 line from Lynnwood to Redmond in blue. The agency said the delay will affect the Lynnwood light-rail extension because the 2 line connection over Lake Washington will allow trains to access Sound Transit's storage and maintenance base in Bellevue. That connection, Sound Transit said, is"critical" to achieve the frequency officials had planned for the Lynnwood light rail train.
Sound Transit plans to keep ST Express Route 510 in service from Everett to Seattle, running in the peak direction every 15 minutes, to provide riders with additional options and interim capacity. Sound Transit is proposing a temporary Route 515 from Lynnwood, with peak-direction service every 10 minutes, as another option.
