About Lynnwood
As a regional crossroads, Lynnwood is home to many popular destinations. These include the Alderwood Mall shopping center, Edmonds College (also home to CWU-Lynnwood) and the Lynnwood City Center Station, which provides local and regional transit access to Seattle, the Eastside and Everett and the rest of Snohomish County. At the Lynnwood City Center Station you can also find the Ride Store, which provides more information on Community Transit’s services — such as bus schedules, Swift bus rapid transit, including the newest addition, Swift Orange Line, Zip Shuttle Alderwood, DART and Vanpool — as well as purchase or add fare to ORCA cards, good for travel throughout the region.

Changes to Routes 120 and 202 coming March 30

Beginning March 30, a segment of Route 120 between Lynnwood Transit Center and Edmonds College will be replaced by new routes, and a segment of Route 202 between 152nd St. NE and Smokey Point Transit Center in Arlington is being rerouted.

Route 120 (Canyon Park – Lynnwood Transit Center)
Starting March 30, Route 120 will no longer travel between Lynnwood Transit Center and Edmonds College.

Route 202 (Smokey Point – Lynnwood)
Beginning March 30, the section of Route 202 between 152nd St. NE and Smokey Point Transit Center in Arlington is being rerouted.
