Show Notes
Sound Transits light rail expansion, approved in 2016, faces a massive budget shortfall of $34.5 billion. The agency is exploring trade-offs like delays in key spots to keep the ST3 plan alive. Three main concepts, including stopping the line short in Fife or holding off on West Seattle, are being considered. The board is committed to balancing regional needs and finding cost-saving tweaks. An updated system plan is due in June, with public input opportunities through a survey and town halls.
