Reminder: share your feedback on potential station improvements

Thank you to everyone who has visited our online open house or drop-in session! If you haven’t given us your input yet, visit us online by May 10.

As part of the Sounder South Capacity Expansion program, we’re studying how to make King Street Station better for passengers and ready to serve more Sounder riders in the years ahead. We’re looking into adding more stairs and elevators, a concourse above the platform, and more!

The King Street Station Platform Area Improvements project is one part of the Sounder South Capacity Expansion program, approved by voters in 2016 to help improve the passenger experience on Sounder and allow us to serve more riders. Other improvements could include longer trains and additional weekday trips.
