Feedback wanted: Light rail stations in Seattle

Interested in station locations for Sound Transit? Here are some engagement opportunities from their outreach team:

Sound Transit is engaging Seattle communities in a conversation about the new West Seattle and Ballard Link Extensions project, which will deliver light rail connections to West Seattle and Ballard and neighborhoods in between, including SoDo, Chinatown-International District, Downtown, South Lake Union, Seattle Center/Uptown and Interbay.

As part of our commitment to engage future riders and communities, we’re hosting three Neighborhood Forums/Open Houses to gather feedback on potential station locations and route alignments.

We hope you’ll be able to join us! The event details are below:
