Help us understand your transit priorities

Which future Link light rail, Sounder train and ST Express bus projects are most important to you? While light rail projects now under construction remain on track, the COVID-19 recession and rising real estate and construction costs have created major affordability challenges for the future. The Sound Transit Board is considering changes to schedules and plans for transit expansions that are not yet under construction.
