Sound Transit to host open house on Auburn Station parking and access improvements

Sound Transit will conduct an open house from 5:30-7:30 p.m. Tuesday, October 30 at the Auburn City Hall, Council Chambers, 25 West Main Street. The public is invited to view early concepts for the new Sounder station parking garage and learn about potential walking, bicycling and transit improvements. 

People unable to attend the event can participate in an online survey at soundtransit.org/auburn-access-improvements, which will be available through Friday, November 2.

In the 2008 Sound Transit 2 ballot measure, voters approved funding for improving commuter access to Sounder train stations. Auburn station improvements include a new parking garage and enhanced connections for pedestrians, cyclists and transit users. 

Sound Transit is currently in environmental review and preliminary design for the project. The new parking garage is scheduled to open in 2023.
