Lynnwood Link Extension

Places you can go: Lynnwood Link Edition

Publish Date

Starting Aug. 30, you can ride Link from Lynnwood to Angle Lake and everywhere in between. Four new stations in Lynnwood, Mountlake Terrace, and Shoreline will connect riders to more parks, shops, and restaurants. 

For those of you north of Northgate, you’ll be only one ORCA card tap away from getting to SeaTac Airport or optimizing your work commute into downtown Seattle. If you live south of Northgate, there are a ton of destinations to be unlocked towards the north. 

Also, with this expansion, our regional transit partners are shifting their routes. Check out the King County Metro (KCM) and Community Transit pages to learn more about their Lynnwood connections. 

Shoreline South/148th

The parking garage equipped station is a hub of King County Metro routes, to get you destinations around Shoreline and Seattle. If you’ve got tickets for a big game, getting to Stadium Station will take less than 30 min on the 1 Line.

Shoreline North/185th

Several KCM routes will take you to places like Richmond Beach and Northgate in Seattle. The station is a 16-minute walk from the Shoreline Library

Mountlake Terrace

Passengers aren’t limited to light rail, with Community Transit, ST Express, and KCM routes available. The park and ride-enabled station allows travelers to reach downtown Seattle in 25 minutes. The Mountlake Terrace Library is an eight-minute walk from the station, while the Mountlake Terrace Pavilion is a quick ride on the route 871 bus

Lynnwood City Center

Looking to shop at the Alderwood Mall? Just grab the Community Transit route 166 from the station to get there. Going to Bellevue on business? ST Express route 535 bus can bring you to the east side with ease. The Lynnwood library is less than a mile from the station, making it a solid walk, roll, or bike ride away.
