Sound Transit gearing up to rebrand Seattle link light rail lines with new names, numbers and colors
With three new link light rail stations in Seattle set to open in just over a month, and more expansions to open in the upcoming years, Sound Transit is beginning the process of renaming its service lines.
Beginning Sept. 18 with the fall service change, the agency will officially rebrand several existing routes with new names, numbers and colors. Riders can expect to see new signage reflecting the changes.
"Sound Transit service is growing, and to keep up with the growth we have a new and simpler way of naming our train and bus rapid transit lines," wrote the agency on their website. "We want to provide an intuitive system that first-time, low English proficiency, or color vision deficient riders can easily navigate."
The link will become the 1 Line, colored green; the Tacoma Link will become the T Line, colored orange; and Sounder North will become the N Line, and Sounder South will become the S Line, both colored light blue.
