Sound Transit Delays West Seattle Light Rail Extension to 2035

Sound Transit has delayed the opening of the West Seattle light-rail extension by three years, now targeting completion in 2035. The agency is pursuing properties for the project, which will require an estimated $465 million. The delay marks another setback for the expansion plans, which have been pushed back previously. For investors and stakeholders in local transit projects, understanding the impact of this delay is crucial, as it may affect future funding and project timelines.
