Sound Transit’s contractor has notified the city that opening of the parking lot and bus loop at 59th Place and 236th St SW is delayed until Sunday, March 7.
This parking lot is located on the eastern half of the Mountlake Terrace Transit Center. The new temporary parking lot and bus loop is being placed in order to prepare for guideway construction of the Lynnwood Link Light Rail Extension until service begins in 2024.

- Routes 111, 112, 119 and KC Metro 347 will use bay 1 in the new bus loop.
- Routes 130, 870, 871 will use the stops on 236th Street SW in front of the transit center.
- The transit center parking garage and freeway station (bays 6 - 7) remain open.
- Customers transferring between the new bus loop and bays 6 – 7 at the freeway station should prepare for a total walking time of approximately seven minutes.
Sound Transit advises its patrons to plan ahead, leave early, and allow extra time to reach your destination. For questions or more information, please contact Sound Transit Community Outreach North Corridor Manager Andrea Burnett at (206) 903-7522 or andrea.burnett@soundtransit.org.
