Sound Transit’s mascot, Zap Gridlock, joined a group of diehard Seahawks fans Friday at a rally near CenturyLink Field. Zap reminded everyone about the special Sounder trains that will be running to the game on Sunday. One of those fans, Phil, rides Sounder to the game because his blue Mohawk doesn't fit in a car.

If you are driving, here's a map that can help you find parking near the stadium.

King County Metro 

Metro bus service may be delayed in the downtown Seattle, Stadium and SODO areas during the Seahawks game on Sunday, January 19.

Sounder service will run for Seahawks playoff game Sunday

Following the Seahawks' playoff win last Saturday, fans can skip traffic and parking fees and board Sound Transit's popular Sounder trains to the Seahawks 3:30 p.m. playoff game against the San Francisco 49ers this Sunday. Special Sounder service will run in addition to regular Link light rail service to and from the stadiums.

Sounder train schedule to the game

Inbound trains from Snohomish County will depart Everett at 12:15 p.m. and 12:30 p.m. with stops in Mukilteo and Edmonds, arriving at King Street Station at 1:14 p.m. and 1:29 p.m.

Sounder train schedule after the game

Fans should note train departure times after the game. Return trains to Everett will leave Seattle 15 and 35 minutes after the game. Here is an online schedule of Sounder trains serving Seahawks games.

Link light rail serves 13 stations in downtown Seattle, SODO, Beacon Hill, Rainier Valley, Tukwila and SeaTac. Link's Stadium Station is a four-block walk from Century Link Field and Safeco Field.

Regular fares will apply for all Sound Transit services. ORCA and all standing transit passes will be accepted. Getting an ORCA card is a great way to skip lines at ticket vending machines. Cards only cost $5 for adults, plus whatever amount a rider chooses to load in the card's E-Purse or the cost of a pass that is good for unlimited transit trips. ORCA works on trains, buses and ferries throughout the region. More information is available at Orca Card.
