This Thursday, Sound Transit will host a neighborhood forum to discuss the options for Ballard light rail development.
The forum will be held on Dec. 5 from 6pm to 8pm at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church (5710 22nd Ave NW). The areas being discussed will include Smith Cove, Interbay, and Ballard.
Sound Transit says there will be project staff on site to explain the alternatives being studied in the environmental review process, and also opportunities to participate in small group activities, “to discuss how your neighborhood priorities relate to future light rail stations.”
The current alternatives being considered are alignments along 14th or 15th Avenues NW, with options for either a tunnel under the Ship Canal or an elevated bridge. The Ballard station options would be either underground or elevated on 14th or 15th near NW Market St.
