Link light rail will serve eight new stations on the Eastside
Sound Transit announced today that the initial segment of the Link 2 Line will open to passenger service on April 27.
The 6.5-mile segment of the East Link Extension includes eight new stations in Bellevue and Redmond. This initial segment will terminate at the South Bellevue Station at the west end, and the Redmond Technology Station on the east. Two-car trains will run every 10 minutes, 16 hours a day.
With the opening of the 2 Line on the Eastside this spring, and our major expansion into Snohomish County this fall, were bringing the convenience of light rail to hundreds of thousands more people across the region. That means more people will be able to use Link light rail to skip the traffic and parking hassles and get to school, work, games, concerts and more, inexpensively and on time, every time, said King County Executive and Sound Transit Board Chair Dow Constantine.
The opening of the 2 Line on the Eastside took the vision, creativity and tireless work of many people to make good on the promise we made to voters in 2008, said Sound Transit Boardmember and King County Councilmember Claudia Balducci. I pushed to open this 6.5- mile, 8-station starter line to connect some of the regions largest employers, growing neighborhoods, and incredible destinations. Today were setting the stage for the Eastsides continued transformation and connecting people to opportunity now. I cant wait to ride it!
