If you take the light rail to Roosevelt station or U District, you’ll be able to enjoy live music and good food from 10 am to 4 pm at Roosevelt and a $3 food walk with 40 U District restaurants and live music from the U District Station from 10 a.m. 2, we encourage you to try out the new transit options. With Link light rail service also beginning at the Northgate Station on Oct.
There will also be a ribbon-cutting ceremony along with a community-led walk, roll, and bike ride towards Sound Transit’s new Link light rail station. On Saturday, Please join us for speakers at the west end of the bridge at 10 a.m. The bridge design changed dramatically due to costs, but we obtained what is a beautiful bridge and a great route. Our legislative delegation held numerous meetings to overcome objections from Sound Transit or Seattle. North Seattle College provided great leadership under Presidents Warren Brown and Mark Mitsui. But, it was not easy to keep Sound Transit or the City committed. But, we knew that was not going to be reliable – and could add 30 minutes just to get to North Seattle College or from home to the transit station.īy starting with state funding, we essentially pushed Sound Transit and Seattle to commit to building the bridge. It told neighbors and North Seattle College students that they could walk around or rely on bus service to west of I-5. We knew a bridge would greatly reduce car trips and reduce the size of the parking garage – saving a very large amount of money. We knew that a bridge could greatly increase access to the College (think Running Start students from Roosevelt, Hale and Ingraham HS – with Roosevelt students crossing street to light rail and going one stop). Since before I became a legislator in 2011, I was working with neighborhood groups to advocate that the Northgate Transit Station include a pedestrian and bike bridge from the Transit Station to North Seattle College and the neighborhoods west of I-5.
