Upcoming 60% design engagement

The Stride S3 Line 60% draft design plans for Seattle, Shoreline, Lake Forest Park and Kenmore were released in November 2022. Since then, we have finalized the 60% design plans. Later this spring, an online open house will be available to learn more about the 60% designs for the Stride S3 Line as well as the S1 line and S2 line. Information about partner agency projects will also be available.

The project team will host drop-in sessions in Shoreline, Lake Forest Park and Kenmore where the public can speak with subject matter experts and learn more about design refinements. Look for another project update soon with additional details on the online open house and drop-in sessions.

King County Metro’s Lynnwood Link connections

King County Metro has begun outreach to help determine updated bus routes when Link light rail extends to Lynnwood. In addition to the new light rail stations, the current ST Express 522 route may be changed to match the planned Stride service between Bothell and Shoreline as early as 2024 or 2025.

The Lynnwood Link Connections mobility project will address changing transit needs and improve mobility options for communities in northwest King County and southwest Snohomish County. Metro is collaborating with Sound Transit and Community Transit, among other partners, to coordinate bus routes based on feedback from communities.

Collected feedback will help shape how bus riders transfer to Link light rail in Mountlake Terrace, Shoreline and North Seattle. Metro is accepting feedback through March 10.
