NE 145th Street station

NE 145th Street is a proposed elevated station on Sound Transit's Lynnwood Link Extension, part of the Link Light Rail system. It will be located at the intersection of Interstate 5 and State Route 523 (NE 145th Street) in Shoreline and will open in 2023 with the rest of the line.

The interchange is currently home to a flyer stop used by King County Metro and Sound Transit Express routes.

Location

NE 145th Street Station will be located adjacent to Interstate 5 at State Route 523 (NE 145th Street), which is situated between the cities of Seattle and Shoreline. The preferred alternative describes an elevated station located in the northeast corner of the reconstructed interchange, attached to a 500-stall parking garage.[1][2]

In August 2016, Sound Transit moved the station's location approximately 400 feet (120 m) north of the initial site, to improve bus connections.[3]
