In effect: Oct. 29, 2024 - Feb. 28, 2025
Routes: 1 Line
Beginning Oct. 29 and continuing through Feb. 28, 2025, Sound Transit will replace and modernize both elevators at the north end of International District/Chinatown Station (entrance/exit A). During this time, all passengers needing elevator access at this station should plan to use the elevators that serve entrance/exit B, located at the south end of the station (closest to S King Street).
Exit B elevators are expected to return to service by Oct. 25. If the return of the elevators is delayed, we will postpone work on the exit A elevators until the exit B elevators return to service.
This work is part of a multi-year project to modernize the elevators and escalators throughout the four downtown Seattle Link stations: International District/Chinatown, Pioneer Square, University Street, and Westlake stations. These upgrades aim to enhance the reliability of the stations’ facilities.
For updates, passengers should subscribe to service alerts for accessibility. You can also sign up for station-specific updates. Visit the service alerts web page to sign up for alerts and current information on service disruptions.
If you need assistance in a Sound Transit station, please call or text Security at (206) 398-5268. If you need specific trip planning support, please call Passenger Care at 1-888-889-6368 (Mon-Fri, 8 a.m.-6 p.m.).
Thank you for your patience as we work to replace elevators and escalators to ensure more reliable service for decades to come.
