Connecting Buses to Link Light Rail in 2021 Moving you to and beyond April 2020 Connecting buses to Link light rail in 2021 In late 2019, Sound Transit and Community Transit asked riders to weigh in on our ideas to reroute some buses and connect Snohomish County riders to Link light rail at Northgate starting in 2021. We updated our service proposal based on your feedback and would like to hear from you again by June 4, 2020. Learn more and share your feedback northgate.participate.online What we heard Many riders are willing to transfer from bus to light rail to improve the speed and reliability of their travel. Riders want more frequent bus service to reduce transfer times at Northgate. Riders want more options to reach their destinations. Our service proposal Increased trip frequency and longer operating hours for select routes, especially in the evening. More choices for riders to transfer to light rail at Northgate or go directly to downtown Seattle by bus.

  • Sound Transit Light Rail - Northgate Link Extension (Contract N125) Seattle, Washington
    Sound Transit Light Rail - Northgate Link Extension (Contract N125) Seattle, Washington By accepting an alternate design concept by means of slurry walls, the project team saved on schedule. The project The Northgate Link Extension Contract N125 is a 3.5 mile long, twin-bored TBM tunnel project that will expand light rail service between the Maple Leaf Portal and the University of Washington Station. When finished by late 2021, the new route will provide an alternate transportation option to congested surface traffic. The challenge Soil conditions included engineered fill and non-engineered fill, till and till-like deposits, cohesionless sand & gravel, cohesionless silt and fine sand, cohesive clay and silt. Challenges included city work in a residential area, tight schedule (slurry walls were constructed in 89 days), sloped site with 25 feet of elevation difference along the site, and excavation through boulders and glacial till. The solution Keller constructed the reinforced slurry walls as support of excavation (SOE) for the Roosevelt Station. The SOE was originally designed as a complex secant pile system, which required a longer schedule. Keller proposed an alternate design concept using slurry walls, which was accepted. The Engineer of Record redesigned the SOE for the station using our concept. Keller utilized hydromills and a hydraulic clam bucket to excavate through well-graded sand and gravel with silt, interspersed with hard granite boulders. A total of 76 panels, reinforced with steel cages, were installed to depths of 155 feet and a combined wall thickness of 32 inches and 36 inches with an overbite of 9 inches. The total excavation surface area was 165,000 square feet.
