In the summer of 2009, Sound Transit’s Link light rail trains will begin carrying riders between downtown Seattle and Tukwila. By late 2009, service will extend all the way to SeaTac Airport. But before service begins, Sound Transit must decide how much passengers will pay.
Sound Transit is proposing a distance-based fare for Link, with discounts for youth, seniors and persons with disabilities. Under that system, Link passengers will pay a base price for a ride, with the cost increasing the farther you go. Complete details can be found online at www.soundtransit.org/linkfares.
If you can’t make the public hearing on the subject (Feb. 5, noon, 401 S Jackson St), email your comments and suggestions to linkfares@soundtransit.org or call 206-398-5404.
