NE 130th St Light Rail Station
Review Status
On December 1, 2022 we reviewed the design development phase (90% design) for the NE 130th
Street Light Rail Station. At this meeting, we voted to approve the design development plans with
one condition and several recommendations. The project will not be reviewed again by the full SDC,
but the condition of approval will be addressed in a future Public Art Advisory Committee (PAAC)
meeting, where SDC members serve as representatives.
Project Description
Sound Transit is proposing to build a light rail station north of NE 130th Street and west of 5th Ave NE. In 2016 voters approved the addition of a light rail station to the Lynnwood Link Extension at NE 130th St. The Lynnwood Link Extension was approved in 2008 as part of the Sound Transit 2 (ST2) ballot measure to provide light rail service between Northgate and Lynwood. The NE 130th St station will be located north of NE 130th St between 5th Ave NE and Interstate 5 and will serve a growing residential neighborhood between the Northgate and Shoreline South/145th Stations.

When you attend a SDC meeting, we provide a time for members of the public to comment. We ask people to sign up when they attend a meeting - we use a sign in sheet to keep track of attendance and to see who wants to speak. We also use this sheet to send notice of future meetings on the project you came to follow. We generally limit comments to two minutes per person. When there are larger groups of people who want to speak on the same topic, we ask that the group appoint a spokesperson to speak for the group. We give groups up to five minutes for public comment. It is helpful to also submit your comment prior to the SDC meeting. This will allow more time for the commission to consider your comment. See below for more information.
Do you want to submit a written comment? Submit your written comments by emailing: SDC_Administration@seattle.gov; Please be sure to include the name of the project in the subject line. Please submit your comments prior to the day of the project review. This will allow more time for the commission to consider your comment.
