About us
Sound Transit is transforming how the Central Puget Sound region moves by planning, building and operating regional transit systems that give millions of riders an alternative to sitting in traffic. As the agency prepares for nearly a million new Central Puget Sound residents by 2040, transit services are expanding to meet today’s growing needs. Thanks to voter approval of the largest mass transit expansion in the region’s history, Sound Transit’s light rail system will grow to four times the size it is today. When complete, the 116-mile light rail system will stretch from Everett to Tacoma and connect major job and population centers in Seattle including South Lake Union, Seattle Center, Ballard and West Seattle. It will also extend east to Bellevue, Redmond, Issaquah and Mercer Island. As Sound Transit grows, we seek innovative, technical and creative professionals who are ready to come on board and make a difference. Career opportunities include information technology, finance, construction management and engineering positions. Apply today at www.soundtransit.org/jobs.

Three down, three to go! We’re halfway through the biggest consecutive stretch of light rail expansion in Sound Transit history. Here's what we've accomplished so far: ✅ Fall 2023: Tacoma’s T Line doubled ✅ Spring 2024: The 2 Line opened on the Eastside ✅ Fall 2024: Lynnwood Link Extension connected the 1 Line to Snohomish County What’s next? Over the next two years, we’ll open three more extensions—plus a new station in North Seattle! Get the latest updates on these projects and timelines on The Platform blog: https://ow.ly/jUTH50Usawp

It has now been three months since the inauguration of the Lynnwood Link Extension. On August 30th, we commemorated the launch of four new stations that connect King and Snohomish County. Within the initial two months, there were over 500,000 boardings, with more than 27,000 occurring on opening day - an amazing achievement. We sincerely appreciate your continued support in utilizing our services. 💚
