Whoa! Enjoy your coffee

Like of bikes next to an event at 42nd and Madison

Hundreds gather in the park in the sun. Music is playing

People stroll past bookstore in the morning sun

No neighborhood photo is complete without the out the door line for coffee

Nobody does community like Seattle when it’s sunny

From the first unpowered test to today’s historic opening, what a privilege it has been to work on this incredible project. All aboard the 2 Line

Mayor Wilson will see you on board!

Sonics back, Mariners opening day tomorrow, crosslake connection opens Saturday…would hate to be anywhere but Seattle right now

Hey yeah it’s me! Thanks for sharing/connecting

Related but not yet incorporated - average trip times on I-5 from Lynnwood to Seattle have been around 75 minutes during construction. The train takes 33 minutes and runs every 4-5.

Even pre Crosslake those numbers will continue to go up

Local small business!

Coffee makes the commute better - and this new cart is a permitted pilot working with ST’s station activation team!

2 Line goes out of service, unloading hundreds of Sounders fans

Fans head towards soccer stadium

Inside of 2 line train after game, crowded but not packed

Full 2 line train viewed from outside at CHS

Last night was the Sounders home opener - and the home opener for the 2 Line!

Really enjoyed my 3 minute wait and less crowded train on the way home from the game

Spotted on the 8 this morning, although the official go live for ORCA contactless payment is Monday! Adult fare riders will be able to use physical and phone wallet credit cards to tap, a feature that will include the usual two hour transfers. Huge for occasional riders, especially sports fans

2 Line to Lynnwood arriving at Symphony Station

Day 3 of simulated service for the 2 Line and it’s still just so cool how much of an improvement this level of service is for Seattle. I have ridden the train 8 times and waited a total of like 5 minutes

There’s a lot to love and some stuff to improve on, but that’s what testing is all about!

It was also very fun to see how excited passengers were about the new trains

This Valentines Day, we're doubling the number of trains between Lynnwood+IDS.

Snohomish County Executive/Sound Transit Board Chair Dave Somers and King County Executive/Sound Transit Boardmember Girmay Zahilay are counting down the days until Feb. 14!

You have existing right of way through high demand areas that would really help people who rely on transit from across the region - what’s so scary about a study

Hard to beat the feeling of your bus pulling up right after your friend’s bus pulled off at the end of a night out
