I asked Erik Ashlie-Vinke, Government & Community Relations Director – North Corridor and here are his responses.
1. Will the station be ready by the August 30th opening date?
Yes the station will be ready for opening on North Shoreline.
2. Are there elevators at the station?
There are elevators at the station.
3. When we are on Link 1 Line and getting off at the 185th Station are there going to be buses people can catch? I am in a wheelchair and need to get to Aurora Transit
Erik contacted Metro with this questions and this is their response:
“The long-term stops have been closed due to Link construction. I asked our bus stop folks and they are looking into whether there is a safe place to put temporary stops for Aug 30-Sep 13. The currently active stops are not close to the station. So the answer is, “Metro is looking at using temporary stops closer to the station, if it can be done safely, before service changes to use the station’s bus loop starting on September 14.”
Otherwise, the following bus service at Shoreline North/185th will be available with the September service change:
King County Metro
Community Transit
Of those three routes, the Metro 348 and CT Swift Blue Line will provide connections from Shoreline North/185th to Aurora/99.
Metro should update in the next week on whether or not they are able to bring the 348 to Shoreline North/185th before opening day.

Wondering when the N. 185th Street road repairs will be finished...the area on the west side of the overpass by the entry into the stadium. Thought it would be done by the time the station opened, but there's be no work done on it for the past month.
ReplyDeleteThat won't help out at all. I still have to take to many buses and travel alone to get to the #348 and then get to the E-Line to Aurora Transit.
ReplyDeleteIt's unfortunate that the new 333 route won't stop at the 185th street station station, it's a missed opportunity for the new apartments in the area. Residents will have to backtrack to the Mountlake Terrace station in order to catch the 1 line.
ReplyDeleteCT Route 130 connects Mountlake Terrace and the AVTC both before and after the service change.
