2 Sound Transit | Transit Development Plan 2020-2025 Sound Transit Transit Development Plan 2020-2025 and 2019 Annual Report INTRODUCTION The Transit Development Plan (TDP) 2020-2025 and 2019 Annual Report provides updated information to the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) on development of the various transit components undertaken by Sound Transit—the Central Regional Transit Authority. Background information on Sound Transit, accomplishments during 2019 and proposed action strategies for 2020 to 2025 are included. While planning is an on-going activity among the various divisions within Sound Transit, this document attempts to capture known planning milestones through 2025.

This document is submitted per requirement of RCW 35.58.2795. As a regional transit authority, Sound Transit is required to prepare a six-year transit development plan and annual report. WSDOT may use this document to prepare an annual report for the Washington State Legislature summarizing the status of public transportation systems in the state. I: AGENCY BACKGROUND In March 1992, the Washington State Legislature (through RCW 81.104.040) authorized King, Pierce and Snohomish counties to create a single agency—the Central Puget Sound Regional Transit Authority, now known as Sound Transit—to develop public transit alternatives to meet the region’s travel needs. The Legislature charged Sound Transit with planning, building and operating a high-capacity transportation system that connects people to their communities and jobs throughout urban areas of King, Pierce and Snohomish counties.

On Nov. 5, 1996, voters approved local funding for Sound Move, a regional high-capacity transit plan that included a 0.4 percent local sales and use tax, a 0.3 percent motor vehicle excise tax and a rental car tax to finance construction and operation of the regional transit system. Sound Move included the ST Express network along with high-occupancy-vehicle (HOV) lane access improvements, Sounder and .

On Nov. 4, 2008, voters approved additional local funding as part of the Sound Transit 2 (ST2) plan. This transit plan included a new 15-year construction program of light rail, commuter rail and regional bus service by extending the Sound Move taxes, as well as increasing the local sales and use tax by an additional 0.5 percent to a total of 0.9 percent.

More recently, on Nov. 8, 2016, voters approved additional local funding as part of the (ST3) plan. This transit plan included a new 25-year construction program of light rail, commuter rail and regional bus service by extending the Sound Move and ST 2 taxes, increasing the local sales and use tax by an additional 0.5 percent to a total of 1.4 percent, increasing the motor vehicle excise tax by 0.8 percent to a total of 1.1 percent and assessing a $0.25 property tax on every $1,000 of assessed home values.

Sound Transit has grown from a planning agency in the late 1990s to an agency that operates light rail, express bus, commuter rail and streetcar service. The agency carried 46.9 million passengers in 2017, 48.3 million

Sound Transit | Transit Development Plan 2020-2025 3 passengers in 2018, and 47.8 million passengers in 2019 on our trains and . We continue to build light rail extensions, transit centers and other transportation infrastructure, and are working towards implementing a new line of service for Sound Transit, bus , along I-405 and SR 522/523.

Sound Move, ST2 and ST3 provide the framework for Sound Transit service and capital projects. Although yearly refinements and updates are made as reflected in the Transit Development Plan and Annual Report, Sound Move, ST2 and ST3 continue to guide growth of the Sound Transit high-capacity transportation system. Sound Transit Service Area Sound Transit’s taxing and service area boundary lines generally follow the urban growth boundaries created by each county in accordance with the state Growth Management Act. The Sound Transit service area boundary was adjusted in some places in consideration of voter FIGURE 2: SOUND precinct boundaries, city limit lines and geography. For planning and budgeting purposes the district boundary was divided into five geographic subareas, each with unique system components.

Figure 2 shows the Sound Transit service district for King, Pierce and Snohomish counties.

4 Sound Transit | Transit Development Plan 2020-2025 Board of Directors In accordance with state law RCW 81.112.030, the Sound Transit Board is comprised of 18 members, including the Washington State Secretary of Transportation and 17 locally elected officials nominated by each of the three county’s executive officials and confirmed by the respective county councils. The Sound Transit Board includes the three county executives, representatives from the largest city in each county and representatives from other cities and unincorporated areas of each county. At least one-half of all appointees from each county also serve on local transit boards.

At the end of 2019, the Sound Transit Board of Directors included:

John Marchione, Chair City of Redmond Mayor Kent Keel, Vice Chair City of University Place Mayor Paul Roberts, Vice Chair Everett Councilmember Nancy Backus City of Auburn Mayor David Baker City of Kenmore Mayor King County Councilmember King County Executive Bruce Dammeier Pierce County Executive City of Seattle Mayor Dave Earling City of Edmonds Mayor Debora Juarez City of Seattle Councilmember Joe McDermott Chair Roger Millar Washington State Secretary of Transportation Kim Roscoe City of Fife Mayor Snohomish County Executive King County Councilmember Peter von Reichbauer King County Councilmember City of Tacoma Mayor

Organizational Structure As of Dec. 31, 2019, Sound Transit employed 1,080 full-time equivalent employees. The total authorized positions, including unfilled positions, is 1,152. Sound Transit staff consisted of the following:

• 70 full-time equivalents in the Communications & External Affairs Department, • 295 full-time equivalents in the Design, Engineering & Construction Management Department, • 152 full-time equivalents in the Executive Department, • 88 full-time equivalents in the Finance • 112 full-time equivalents in the Information Technology Department, • 22 full-time equivalents in the Legal Department, • 196 full-time equivalents in the Operations Department and • 86 full-time equivalents in the Policy, Environment and Project Development Department, • 59 full-time equivalents in the Safety & Quality Management Department.

Sound Transit | Transit Development Plan 2020-2025 7 II: SERVICE AND FARE CHARACTERISTICS

ST Express

Opened: 1999 Fleet: 315 Vehicles in 266 Maximum Service: Annual Ridership: 17,495,000 Routes: 28 Adult Fare: $2.75 one-county $3.75 multi-county

Sound Transit operates regional express bus service which connects major regional destinations throughout the . Service operates from at least 2:13 a.m. to 1:09 a.m. everyday. ST Express routes range in service from weekday peak-direction only service, to frequent, all-day, bi-directional routes on both weekdays and weekends.

Given that the ST Express network connects major employment centers throughout the region, the service is more commuter oriented than most transit systems. An expanding economy means increased commuter demand during peak time periods, particularly in those centers where employee parking is limited and expensive.

In early 2014, the Sound Transit Board adopted updated Service Standards and Performance Measures that include new passenger load guidelines for ST Express. The guidelines recognize that standing passengers during peak hours are an ongoing reality and lists priorities for corrective action based on the severity of overcrowding and the amount of time passengers have to stand. Sound Transit staff continually monitors service and uses several service management tools to reduce overcrowding, including schedule adjustments to balance loads, assigning larger buses and adding extra bus trips if the budget allows.

Sound Transit contracts with partner transit agencies—, and —to operate and maintain ST Express buses. ST Express service is operated out of Community Transit’s Kasch Park Base in Everett, King County Metro’s East Base in Bellevue and Pierce Transit’s operations facility in Lakewood. At the end of 2019, Sound Transit owned 315 buses, with 266 used in active maximum service. As of the September 2018 service change, over 90% of the bus fleet is equipped with Automatic Passenger Counters (APCs). As of the end of 2019, 28 ST Express regional bus routes were in operation. Below are the routes and their service characteristics:

For ST Express, Sound Transit employs a zone-based fare structure, consisting of three zones, one for each county (Pierce, King, or Snohomish County) within the Sound Transit district. Trips within one county are one zone, while those that cross a county line have a higher “multi-county” fare.

Fares were last changed in March 2018 to simplify the reduced fare categories for ST Express services. As of July 1, 2018, single-ride fares for adults are $2.75 for one zone and $3.75 for multi-county trips. Corresponding monthly pass prices are $99 and $135. Senior/disabled fares are $1.00 and youth and low income fares are $1.50 no matter how zones are travelled.

Sound Transit served over 90 regional transit facilities, including Link and Sounder Stations, park-and-ride lots, freeway stations, transit centers and terminals. Some stations and transit centers served by Sound Transit buses or trains are marked as “Regional T” locations. The “Regional T” sign indicates that these facilities offer regional services and connections between local and regional services.

Appendix F provides details of each facility served by Sound Transit and the service connections that are available at that facility.

Sounder

Opened: 2000 Fleet: 67 railcars 14 locomotives Vehicles in 59 railcars Maximum Service: 11 locomotives Annual Ridership: 4,612,000 Track Length: 81.8 miles Stations: 12 Adult Fare: $3.25 - $5.75

Sound Transit’s operates weekday service along two corridors that radiate from Seattle’s , north to Everett and south to Tacoma/Lakewood. Both services operate largely on BNSF Railway Company tracks.

The Sounder south line began operation in September 2000 with two peak period round trips operating northbound in the morning to Seattle and southbound in the afternoon to Tacoma. Starting in 2000, Sound Transit worked closely with BNSF to gradually ramp up service levels as Sound Transit-funded track and signal improvements were constructed along the line. With the start-up of the ninth South line round trip in June 2009, Sound Transit completed implementation of the full service levels called for in the 1996 Sound Move Plan. The south line segment of Sounder was extended to Lakewood in October 2012 on track that was previously purchased from BNSF and . Two new stations opened for rail service as part of this extension, South Tacoma and Lakewood stations. The South line stations are Lakewood, South Tacoma, Station, Puyallup, Sumner, Auburn, Kent, Tukwila and King Street Station ().

The Sounder north line began operation in December 2003 with one peak period round trip operating along Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) Railway tracks between Everett and Seattle with an intermediate stop in Edmonds. opened in 2008 and additional round trips were implemented in 2005, 2007 and 2008, bringing North line commuter service to its maximum level of four round trips under Sound Transit’s operating agreement with BNSF Railway.

As of the end of 2019, Sounder operated thirteen AM-peak trips into Seattle, four on the North line and nine on the South line. Also during the AM-peak, three reverse commute trips are operated on the South line to Tacoma. Similarly, during the PM-peak, 13 trips are operated out of Seattle, four on the North line and nine on the South line. In addition, during the PM-peak, three reverse commute trips are operated on the South line to Seattle. One midday train was introduced in September 2016 which leaves Lakewood in the late morning and returns from Seattle in the early afternoon. Sounder South line operates using seven-car trains and the North line usually operates using two, three, or five-car trains. Approximate travel times are about 60 minutes on the North line to Everett and about 55 minutes to Tacoma and 75 Minutes to Lakewood on the South line. A complete Sounder schedule can be found on the Ride the Wave Transit Guide or www.SoundTransit.org.

10 Sound Transit | Transit Development Plan 2020-2025 Both Sounder lines operate seasonal off-peak trains to sporting events in Seattle at CenturyLink Field and T- Mobile Park and the Washington in Puyallup. For event service for Mariners, Sounders FC and Seahawks games, the south line uses seven-car trains while the North line uses five-car trains.

Sound Transit owns 67 rail cars (27 cab cars, 40 coach cars) manufactured by Bombardier and 14 locomotives manufactured by the ElectroMotive Division of General Motors and Motive Power Industries. All Sounder rail cars are equipped with APCs on every door. Sound Transit contracts with BNSF to operate its Sounder service and with for maintenance of the fleet. Maintenance activities are carried out at Amtrak’s Holgate yard in Seattle’s SODO District.

For Sounder, single-ride fares for adult riders range from $3.25 to $5.75 and are based on the distance traveled. The price of a Sounder ticket starts with a base fare of $3.05. A per-mile charge of $0.055 is added to the base fare and the sum is rounded to the nearest quarter to determine the final cost of the trip. As with ST Express, fares were changed in March 2016 to introduce the low income category. Corresponding monthly pass prices range between $117 and $207. Senior/disabled fares are approximately 50% of the adult fare and youth and low income fares are discounted approximately 25% from the adult fare. One-way or round-trip paper tickets (as well as monthly passes or E-purse value on ORCA cards, as described below) may be purchased from Ticket Vending Machines located at all Sounder stations and proof of payment must be carried by passengers at all times onboard Sounder or at the station platforms. Roving fare enforcement officers routinely patrol the trains and station platforms to ensure proper fare payment and to assist passengers in purchasing the correct fare. Additionally under RailPlus, an agreement between Sound Transit and Amtrak, passengers with valid regional passes may ride trains that operate between Seattle, Edmonds and Everett. Likewise, Sounder will honor Amtrak tickets between these locations.

All Sounder commuter rail stations have bus transportation connections located directly at the station or within a short walking distance. Bus service schedules are often synchronized to the train schedule to allow passengers the opportunity to complete a seamless transit trip. In addition, Sounder shares Seattle’s King Street Station with Amtrak, facilitating connections between the two services.

No service is provided on New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. Reduced weekday schedules operate on the Day after Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve when those days land on a weekday. The reduced weekday schedule operates eight round trips on the South Line and two round trips on the North Line.

Tacoma Link, opened in 2003, is a 1.6-mile light rail line connecting the Tacoma Dome and the Theater District in Downtown Tacoma. There are four intermediate stations at S. 25th Street, Union Station, Convention Center and Commerce Street. To operate Tacoma Link, Sound Transit owns three electric-powered light rail vehicles manufactured by Inekon and Skoda Dopravni Technica of the Czech Republic. All vehicles are equipped with APCs. Sound Transit operates and maintains the vehicles out of its Tacoma Link Operations & Maintenance Facility. A maximum of two light rail cars are scheduled, with the third car available as a spare. The Tacoma Link alignment is approximately half double-track and half single-track, with a scheduled end-to-end running time of approximately 12 minutes each way.

Four of the six Tacoma stations provide intermodal public transportation connections, including local and express bus service at zones along Commerce Street. The , at the south end of the line, provides connections to Sounder commuter rail, ST Express bus service, Pierce Transit local bus service, Intercity service to Olympia/Thurston County and Greyhound intercity service. In addition, Tacoma’s Amtrak station is located nearby.

Link Light Rail

Opened: 2009 Fleet: 62 (154 on order) Vehicles in 50 Maximum Service: Annual Ridership: 24,762,000 Track Length: 20.2 miles Stations: 16 Adult Fare: $2.25 - $3.25

Link light rail opened from Westlake Station inside the Downtown Seattle Transit to Tukwila/International Blvd Station in Tukwila via the Rainier Valley in July 2009. In December 2009, the Airport Link project connected Tukwila/International Blvd Station to a new light rail station between the main terminal of Sea-Tac International Airport and the City of SeaTac. SeaTac/Airport Station also provides pedestrian access between the City of SeaTac and the north end of the terminal.

The year 2016 marked two service expansions in the Link light rail system. In March 2016, the $1.9 billion University Link extension expanded the system 3.1 miles north from Westlake Station to Station, with an additional stop located at Capitol Hill. This was the first extension of the light rail system since SeaTac/Airport station opened and connects downtown Seattle to University of Washington in only eight minutes. In September 2016, Link service extended south by 1.6 miles to , which serves as a major park-and-ride facility for the Link system.

To operate Link, Sound Transit owns 62 low-floor light rail cars from Kinkisharyo/Mitsui of Japan. Each 95-foot vehicle can seat 74 passengers and hold up to 148 in a target maximum load. As of 2018, 20 of the 62 vehicles (32% of the fleet) are equipped with APCs. The cars are currently paired into a mix of two- and three-car trains, and all Link stations have been constructed to accommodate up to four-car trains in the future. Day-to-day operations, maintenance and dispatch of Link as well as complementary paratransit service is contracted with King County Metro. Link vehicles are stored and maintained at the Link Operations & Maintenance Facility (OMF) in the SODO District on Airport Way South.

Up until March 2018 when expansion of the Washington State Convention Center eliminated the northern bus portal to the Downtown Seattle Transit Tunnel (DSTT), King County Metro and Sound Transit shared the DSTT facilities at Convention Place, Westlake, University Street, Square and International District/Chinatown Stations. These buses now operate on the surface where passengers may seamlessly transfer between regional and local bus services and Link. Besides the DSTT, bus connections are available at all other Link stations, with four stations featuring extensive bus connections and amenities: • Station’s construction also included the Mount Baker Transit Center, located east of the station across Rainier Avenue South and features bus layover facilities and three off-street bus bays. • The Tukwila/International Blvd Station features a 600-stall park-and-ride lot and three bus bays located underneath the station, offering connections to King County Metro’s RapidRide A and F Lines. • SeaTac/Airport Station features two pedestrian bridges connecting both to the airport’s parking garage and passenger terminal to the west and to International Blvd and four on-street bus bays to the east.

Sound Transit | Transit Development Plan 2020-2025 11 • University of Washington Station features a pedestrian overpass across Montlake Blvd to connect to bus routes on NE Pacific Street and on Stevens Way which is about 1,200 feet from the station. Construction continues on light rail extension projects across the region. Upcoming extensions to light rail include:

• North to University District, Roosevelt and Northgate in 2021 • East to Mercer Island, Bellevue and Redmond/Overlake in 2023 • North to Shoreline, Mountlake Terrace and Lynnwood, south to Federal Way, and east to Downtown Redmond in 2024

Other Sound Transit 3 projects further expand the Link light rail system to Ballard, West Seattle, Kirkland, Issaquah, Everett and Tacoma. A map of the ST3-approved Regional Rail system, including light rail, is available in Appendix E.

Holiday schedules on Link light rail operate the Sunday schedule on New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day; and the Saturday schedule being operated on Martin Luther King Junior Day, Presidents’ Day, and the Day after Thanksgiving.

Like Sounder, adult fares on Link are distance-based and currently range from $2.25 for short-distance trips and increase in 25-cent increments up to $3.25 for a trip between University of Washington and Angle Lake stations. The price of a Link ticket starts with a base fare of $2.25. A per-mile charge of $0.05 is added to the base fare and the sum is rounded to the nearest quarter to determine the final cost of the trip. Fares were last changed in March 2015 which increased Link base fares to be consistent with King County Metro fare rates. Corresponding monthly pass prices are $81 to $117. Senior/disabled fares are $1.00 for all trips and youth and low income fares are $1.50 for all trips. Ticket Vending Machines are available at each of the Link Stations. 12 Sound Transit | Transit Development Plan 2020-2025 As with Sounder, roving fare enforcement officers ensure that passengers have valid proof-of-payment while on-board or on station platforms. One Regional Card for All (ORCA) ORCA serves as most of the region’s transit passes and transfer media. ORCA is accepted by the seven ORCA partner agencies, including Sound Transit, Community Transit, , King County Metro Transit (Metro), , Pierce Transit and Washington State . ORCA cards are also good for rides on the South Lake Union Streetcar, and the Seattle Monorail. Riders using cash instead of an ORCA card to transfer between different agencies' systems must pay the full fare for each leg of their ride. King County Metro Transit still offers paper transfers that are good within their own system. An ORCA regional pass replaced the monthly PugetPass and is valid at face value on all of the participating ORCA agencies (except where additional fare may be necessary). Also available is an E- purse, or stored value used like cash to pay one’s bus or train fare. The fare for the ride is deducted from the E-purse on an ORCA card, allowing riders to "pay as you go." The E-purse may also be used in combination with a pass. On a bus, passengers can tap their ORCA card at the card reader next to the driver. On Sounder or Link, riders must tap their card before boarding at platform card readers and again before exiting so that the correct amount is deducted. If a rider forgets to tap their card after exiting, they are charged the maximum fare possible from the starting station. With an ORCA card, transfers between buses and trains are automatically calculated and balances are applied to the connecting trips, so paper transfers are no longer needed. ORCA cards may be purchased at any transit costumer service office and at retail outlets. They are also sold at vending machines located at every rail station and selected bus transit centers.

Sound Transit | Transit Development Plan 2020-2025 13 III: AGENCY PERFORMANCE Ridership in 2019 Since service began on ST Express in 1999 through the end of 2019, Sound Transit has carried over 468 million passengers throughout the Puget Sound region, carrying nearly 47.9 million passengers in 2019 on its buses and trains. In 2019 system-wide, Sound Transit averaged almost 160,200 boardings each weekday.

Tacoma Link carried nearly 937,000 passengers by the end of 2019. This is a 5.6 percent decrease from 2018. In 2018, the Tacoma Dome went through a six-month renovation with no events. Events at Tacoma Dome have a positive effect on Tacoma Link ridership.

In 2019, Tacoma Link carried over 3,100 passengers on average each weekday. Figure 6 below shows ridership trends on Tacoma Link since 2003.

Sound Transit | Transit Development Plan 2020-2025 17 Link Link light rail started operation in 2009, becoming Washington State’s first-ever high-capacity rapid transit line. Service initially ran between Westlake Station in the Downtown Seattle Transit Tunnel and Tukwila/International Blvd Station and was extended to SeaTac/Airport Station on Dec. 19, 2009. Service expanded in both directions in 2016 and now operates between the University of Washington and Angle Lake stations, with 14 stations in between.

Approximately 24.8 million passengers rode Link in 2019 and over 149 million riders have taken Link since the line opened in 2009.

Link ridership tends to peak during the summer season when passengers use Link to access sporting events, entertainment and recreational destinations in downtown Seattle and the SODO/Stadium area and SeaTac Airport. Because of this, Link continues to show robust weekend ridership, especially during the busier summer months. During July and August of 2019, average daily boardings on Link light rail exceeded 83,000.

In 2019, Link carried over 78,000 passengers on average each weekday. Figure 7 below shows ridership trends on Link since 2009.

18 Sound Transit | Transit Development Plan 2020-2025 Paratransit With the start-up of Link light rail, Sound Transit also assumed a prominent role in providing paratransit service in the corridor served by this new rail line. Paratransit service is operated by several contractors for King County Metro and costs are shared between Metro and Sound Transit for the service area surrounding Link in University District, Capitol Hill, downtown Seattle, Southeast Seattle, Tukwila and SeaTac. The ridership information here reflects only those trips that have been allocated to Sound Transit as part of its paratransit obligation for Link.

Approximately 69,000 passengers rode Link’s paratransit service during 2019 and over 669,000 passengers have used this service since Link opened in 2009. Figure 8 below shows paratransit ridership allocated to Sound Transit since the start-up of Link. The decrease in ridership since 2013 is due to a change in how these rides are apportioned between King County Metro and Sound Transit. Paratransit ridership has remained constant even as Sound Transit’s own share shown below has decreased. In early 2015, King County Metro modified the eligibility requirements for Paratransit service, contributing to the decrease in ridership in 2015. More recently, with maturation of ridership on Link extensions to Angle Lake and University of Washington stations, paratransit ridership has grown over the past two years.

Sound Transit | Transit Development Plan 2020-2025 19 2019 Accomplishments • In February Sound Transit began the process to develop route and station location alternatives for the West Seattle and Ballard Link Extensions. After receiving input and feedback from community members, the Board identified preferred and other alternatives to study in a draft environmental impact statement. The project is now in environmental review.

• After a decade of mixed bus and rail operations in Downtown Seattle Transit Tunnel, in March, all bus routes moved to surface streets and the four downtown stations became Link-only.

• Additional ST Express buses were deployed in March and September to maintain service levels in an environment of worsening regional traffic congestion.

• Also in March double-decker buses debuted on I-405 ST Express routes 532 and 535, increasing the capacity of each bus by 40 percent over the previous articulated buses.

• In April, East Link achieved 50 percent project completion. The project is on schedule to open in 2023.

• In May the Board approved a contract to add up to 900 electronic, on-demand bike lockers at stations throughout our service area, 124 of which will be installed prior to the end of the 2019. Sound Transit will install more on-demand lockers annually, eventually replacing all 451 traditional bike lockers.

• In June crews laid the first 300-foot sections of new rail for the 2.4-mile Hilltop Tacoma Link Extension, which will serve the Stadium and Hilltop districts with six new stations when it opens in 2022.

• Real-time arrival information is now digitally displayed at every Link station. Previously, this information was only available at the Capitol Hill and University of Washington stations.

• Siemens Mobility delivered the first of the next generation light rail vehicles in June, with a total of 152 vehicles expected over the coming five years, more than doubling our current capacity by 2024.

• Sound Transit awarded $40 million in System Access Funds to 30 different projects that will make it easier and more convenient to get to transit. In 2019, Sound Transit contributed to the state’s transportation system policy goals (as stated in RCW 47.04.280) through the following action strategies:

• Preservation. We continued to maintain our equipment and facilities and to operate public transit services. • Safety. We operated our transit vehicles in a safe manner, maintained a group of safe and secure facilities and kept a regular schedule of light and heavy maintenance of buses and trains. • Mobility. By carrying nearly 48.2 million riders in 2019, we contributed to better air quality and greater ease of travel while mitigating traffic congestion for residents of the Puget Sound region. • Environment. We maintained our ISO 14001 certification of our Environmental and Sustainability Management System. • Stewardship. Sound Transit continuously implements service efficiencies on ST Express routes by shifting resources from low-productivity routes to highly used routes to increase service and relieve overcrowding.

Sound Transit | Transit Development Plan 2020-2025 23 V: PLANNED ACTIVITIES, 2020 – 2025 COVID-19 Impact As with most agencies nation-wide, Sound Transit is evaluating service levels and the timing of capital projects as a result of reduced revenues stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent economic downturn. This process began in May 2020 with an overview of the potential financial impacts and will continue through summer 2021, where the Board will establish clear expectations about project delivery timelines with input from the public and partner organizations. During the remainder of 2020, we will advance projects in a fiscally prudent manner while monitoring the financial impacts of the recession and continuing to pursue additional funding opportunities. In developing its annual budget for 2021, the Board will continue to fund early design work, environmental review processes and work to identify property requirements, even though many projects’ completion timelines will need to be revised. This strategy will keep projects “shovel ready” for delivery as quickly as possible, particularly if the agency’s financial situation improves.

Based on agency contractual commitments already in place, Sound Transit will focus future realignment actions on projects that are not already in construction or under contract. Major projects that are still moving forward right now, contributing to our region’s economic recovery, include but aren’t limited to light rail extensions to Northgate, Lynnwood, Bellevue, Redmond, Federal Way and the Tacoma Link Hilltop Extension.

The following information is accurate as of the adoption of the 2020 Budget and Transit Improvement Plan at the end of 2019. The matrices describe the planned activities to be undertaken by Sound Transit for the years 2020 - 2025. These activities include the deployment of new transit service, facility construction and/or equipment purchases. Activities include any projects in the Sound Transit 2 and Sound Transit 3 program whose schedules are known at this time. Preservation activities are also noted; all other items are considered expansion activities. More detailed project information can be found in the annual Transit Improvement Plan, or TIP, that is now a part of the 2020 Financial Plan & Proposed Budget available on our website at https://www.soundtransit.org/sites/default/files/documents/2020-financial-plan-adopted-budget.pdf.
