East Link will give riders a fast, frequent and reliable connection between the Eastside's biggest population and employment centers and destinations.

 

East Link Construction

East Link light rail construction is underway! While this new service will provide connections to regional job and population centers, Eastside commuters will experience commute challenges during construction, especially those using park & ride lots to connect to transit and other ride-sharing services.

King County Metro has commute planners and resources available to help you find new parking options, bus routes, or carpool and VanShare opportunities:

Sound Transit has the most up to date information on the construction and events surrounding the construction of the East Link Light Rail.  Find out more at their project information page.

Overlake Transit Center Park-and-Ride Closure

During construction the Overlake Transit Center Park-and-Ride will be closed.  This closure is expected to last six years. Sound Transit has worked to open alternative Park-and-Ride lots in the area that will be served by the same routes that currently serve the Overlake Transit Center.
