Rachael LNot very good at crossposting #SoundTransit opening day for cross lake service but I'm at Judkins station at Rainier side entrance. For crowd management the line to ride snakes up to the 23rd entrance which has been going for hours now. https://bsky.app/profile/r343l.bsky.social/post/3mi5crt7hf22r #seattle #Bellevue #transit
Ya know several moons ago I worked at the Meydenbauer center in #Bellevue and it always miffed me that I had to drive from the theatre to the Whole Foods that was barely spitting distance away but down 5 lane stroads and across I5. Now the 2 Line can whisk you from the front door of the Meydenbauer to a platform literally over the Whole Foods. Now that’s what I call #transit
The Gregarious DragonIt's actually happening... Watching the ribbon cutting ceremony for the Cross-Lake Connection right now. Congrats to Sound Transit and the Seattle region as a whole.

Looking forward to tomorrow, as the Seattle area gets to boast of a world's first... the first light rail line to cross a floating bridge. It's been years in the making, had tons of delays, but tomorrow it finally opens and links Seattle proper to Mercer Island, Bellevue and Redmond. Granted, the segment from South Bellevue station to Downtown Redmond station has been open for a while, as well as the International District/Chinatown station in Seattle, but the Judkins Park and Mercer Island stations are all new. The tracks cross the Homer M Hadley Memorial Floating Bridge, which besides carrying the tracks carries the westbound lanes of Interstate 90 from Mercer Island to Seattle. The ribbon cutting is at Sam Smith Park, just across from the eastern entrance of the Judkins Park station, and that's at 9:00 AM. Service begins at 10:00 AM. https://seattletransitblog.com/2026/03/27/a-sneak-peek-at-the-crosslake-connection/ #Seattle #MercerIsland #Bellevue #Redmond #SoundTransit #LinkLightRail #LinkLine2 #PublicTransit #GrandOpening #WorldsFirst
Conspiracy of CartographersThis Saturday, when the cross-lake connector begins service, spider maps will be installed in many of the new station kiosks.
Spider maps show transit service serving a specific point—the routes radiate out like the legs of a spider.
Here’s the #Bellevue Downtown station.
Hey, the cross-lake connector in #seattle opens in a couple of days, and I haven’t posted the spider maps I made for all the new stations!
Here’s South #Bellevue
FrankDas Theater um die Renovierung von Schloss #Bellevue wird ja nun auch immer mehr zum Grab von #Steuergeldern...
Ist ja nicht so, dass Deutschland das Geld im Überfluss hat und für jeden Spass einfach so verbrennen kann...
Ich könnt mich aufregen...
Lightrail between Seattle & Bellevue in 6 days! But why is the train line and station in the middle of a highway anyway and how did that impact the community? https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/transportation/can-seattle-light-rail-repair-what-a-freeway-broke/
