ST Link
North Alignments
When
the Sound Transit Board made its decision November 2001 to begin
building an initial link segment from downtown Seattle nearly to the
Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, it also strongly re-affirmed its
commitment to extending the light rail line north to the University
District and Northgate. The northbound segments from downtown will
have either direct or indirect impacts (depending on the alignment
chosen) on the SLU/Cascade neighborhoods. Contact Sound Transit for
the most up-to-date information. Conceptual engineering for the draft
supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) will be completed
during Spring and Summer 2002. The draft supplemental EIS is
anticipated to be completed this fall with the Sound Transit Board
scheduled to select a preferred route alternative in January 2003.
