Link light rail will be temporarily suspended between Capitol Hill and SODO on Sunday, Feb. 23 to accommodate necessary system maintenance.
During this disruption, crews will be completing a package of pre-scheduled maintenance projects including storm sewer cleaning, switch replacement and fiber inspections. During the disruption, Sound Transit will provide Link Shuttle buses to transport passengers. The buses will run approximately every 10-15 minutes and stop at all stations between Capitol Hill and SODO. More information is available here.
Passengers travelling southbound from Capitol Hill station will have to get off the train and take the shuttle, reconnecting at SODO station if they are continuing to travel south. The same will be true for passengers heading north through SODO station, who will exit at SODO and reconnect at Capitol Hill for the remainder of their journey. Link trains will be operating every 15 minutes from Lynnwood City Center to Capitol Hill and from Angle Lake to SODO.
Passengers should plan ahead and allow for extra time for transfers between buses and trains or seek alternative transit options that may better suit their needs. A full list of transit options is available at https://www.soundtransit.org/1LineAlternatives.
A language line is available to provide translation assistance for limited English proficiency persons at 800-823-9230.
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, Title VI protected populations (race, color, national origin), low-income and limited-English-proficiency populations.
