The new map is also available in a PDF version and the website includes a newly-formatted project list. Not a lot has changed from the old map, but the new map is easier to read and worth perusing. Meanwhile, the new map’s blue line would be a Lynnwood to Redmond via Downtown Seattle line.ĭraft Plan expansion concept for the region from last year. This should increase the operational efficiency of each line by avoiding a marathon 65-mile route from Tacoma to Everett that’d take at least two hours each way. Under the concept, the Ballard line continues to Tacoma (as the green line) and the West Seattle line turns north to Lynnwood as the red line–and will continue on to Everett by 2036. On the positive side, the new map continues to reflect the split spine concept Sound Transit unveiled in December 2015. ST3 promised light rail to the Tacoma Dome by 2030, with a trip to Sea-Tac taking 35 minutes. The interactive map also includes slightly updated quick facts on the new lines voters authorized.Ĭlick on the Ballard line, for example, and you’ll quickly see Sound Transit’s expected operational date of 2035 and see the movable bridge crossing of Salmon Bay that the transit agency is heavily leaning toward–despite the obvious advantages of a tunnel crossing: no service disruption for passing ships and no costly, time-consuming, and ultimately perhaps only partially successful environmental mitigation for sensitive salmon runs. The old map helped sell the package to the regional electorate that voted 54% in favor of the 25-year investment last year. Sound Transit upgraded its old ST3 map with a cleaner new map and website.
