We’re working on ways to improve access to South Tacoma Station so Sounder train service is more convenient for all. This could mean investments in safer walking, rolling and bicycling connections between the station and surrounding neighborhoods.
Ready to take a deeper dive into how this project could transform the South Tacoma Station area? Check out our newly published Alternatives Analysis Report. It outlines the project goals, the improvements we’ve considered, the criteria we used to evaluate them, and the list of improvements we’ll continue studying in the months ahead.
All of the ideas we shared with the community last fall will move to the next round of study, following action by the Sound Transit Board System Expansion Committee on March 10. You can find these in Table 3-4 (page 76) and Table 3-5 (page 81) of the report.
Our next step is to begin engineering studies and environmental review of all the potential improvements. We’ll have updated information to share in the coming months, and more opportunities for your input. We expect to complete the project by 2030.
