Crosslake Connection Opens as 2 Line Links Seattle and Eastside Across Lake Washington
TL;DR
Sound Transit opens the Crosslake Connection, extending the 2 Line across Lake Washington to Lynnwood and adding Mercer Island and Judkins Park stations. The project, which connects with the 1 Line at Chinatown-International District, brings roughly 10-minute service along a new floating-bridge route and is hailed as a decades-long milestone that significantly improves Eastside access to downtown Seattle and major destinations, with accompanying celebrations and public events.
