 Passengers at Sumner Station.
It’s been about two months since the Sound Transit Board of Directors selected Harbor Pacific Contractors for final design and construction of the Sumner Station garage. The HPC team has been busy over the past weeks, with early site exploration and structure design.
Stay tuned for more information later this spring about building designs and what to expect during construction.
 Puyallup Station garage

The facility, with over 680 new stalls, opened to the public on March 27.

 Sumner’s new shuttle, the Commuter Connector.
Do you work in Sumner’s industrial area? A new shuttle service may be for you! The City of Sumner launched the Commuter Connector earlier this month, to give workers a direct connection from Sumner Station.
The Connector meets Sounder trains and runs every 20 minutes, when Sounder is running. It then drops employees off at their worksite and brings them back to the station again when it is time to return home.
As of March 20, the S Line mid-morning train now leaves Sumner Station at 10:43 a.m. Whether you are traveling for work, appointments or fun, Sounder provides a great alternative to sitting in traffic!
