Link Light Rail Construction

Lynnwood Transit Center HOV Ramp Nighttime Closures September 2, 7-9 and 13-16

Due to Sound Transit Link light rail construction, the HOV exit and onramp between I-5 and the Lynnwood Transit Center will be closed in the evenings Monday through Thursday through September 30 from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m.

Community Transit and Sound Transit bus routes will continue to make their planned stops at the transit center. However, routes that normally access the transit center directly from I-5 may experience short delays as buses will go to the transit center on surface streets.

Thank you for your patience during Sound Transit light rail construction.

Lynnwood Transit Center parking map

Sound Transit's Link light rail construction has changed the layout of parking at the Lynnwood Transit Center. Please refer to the map below for approved parking areas. 

The closed portion of the parking lot will be the site of the future parking garage for the Lynnwood City Center light rail station. Construction of the garage is expected to take approximately two and a half years, opening in spring 2023.

Additional parking changes are expected in the coming year as construction advances.  

Thank you for your patience as we work toward integrating our bus service with future light rail service in Snohomish County.
