Due to planned maintenance, Link light rail will be single-tracking at the Mt. Baker Station and the Beacon Hill Station starting at 11 p.m. Saturday, October 9 until the end of service and on Sunday, October 10, from the start of service to approximately 7:45 a.m., when normal service will be restored.

During this time, the southbound platforms at both stations will be closed. The northbound platform will be used for both northbound and southbound travel.  Passengers should be aware of the direction of the trains arriving at the stations, as that will be the direction in which the trains will continue. 

All Sound Transit passengers must wear face coverings in compliance with the federal Transportation Security Administration (TSA) mandate.

A language line is available to provide translation assistance for limited English proficiency persons at 800-823-9230. 

Sound Transit remains committed to working closely with its partners to continue serving the public. Efforts will continue to prioritize serving riders who depend on Sound Transit’s services, including seniors, people with disabilities, Title VI protected populations (race, color, national origin), low-income and limited-English-proficiency populations.
