Stay Alert for 2 Line Train Testing

Test trains are running on Sound Transit’s 2 Line between South Bellevue Station and Redmond Technology Station every 10–15 minutes in preparation for opening. While this is a simulated service, the tracks are active. Be sure you stay safe and look both ways, avoid distractions, and use crosswalks. The 2 Line, opening this spring, will add 6.6 miles, eight stations, and two garages to the light rail system.
