"Lynnwood Link Light Rail Service Launches August 30"

Sound Transit announced that the Link 1 Line will extend to Lynnwood on August 30, adding four new stations and increasing train frequency during peak hours. Bus service upgrades originally planned for August 31 will now take place on September 14 to ensure a smooth transition. The extension is seen as a major milestone in the growth of light rail, connecting two counties and providing increased transit options for riders. The project budget includes federal funding and a low-interest loan, and the extension will serve stations with multiple transit connections.
