Sound Transit invites the public to view, comment on the 2024 ST Express Bus Service Plan

Changes focused on ST Express service between Snohomish County and downtown Seattle with the 1 Line extension to Lynnwood

Publish Date

Sound Transit invites the public to learn more about the second phase of the 2024 Service Plan, which includes ST Express bus changes that will connect riders to the extended 1 Line. Service is scheduled to open this fall serving four new Link stations: Lynnwood City Center, Mountlake Terrace, Shoreline North/185th, and Shoreline South/148th, with trains arriving as often as every 8-10 minutes.

Anticipating rush-hour crowding between Northgate and Downtown Seattle when the 1 Line extension to Lynnwood opens, the original ST Express bus restructure has been postponed, and replaced with a temporary revision focused on enhancing service between Snohomish County and Downtown Seattle. People can learn about the proposed ST Express service changes included in the 2024 Service Plan Phase Two on the service plan website. 

Comments can be submitted by email or phone at servicechanges@soundtransit.org or 206-553-3774 through Jan. 30.

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 and Title VI protected populations (minority, low income and Limited English Proficiency (LEP) populations).
