Community meeting planned on future of Ballard light rail

Seattle City Councilmember Dan Strauss is hosting a community meeting with Sound Transit on May 11 at 6 p.m. at the National Nordic Museum in Ballard to discuss potential changes to the Ballard Link Extension. Sound Transit is considering cost-cutting options that could stop the light rail line short of Ballard, prompting elected officials and community members to advocate for the project as originally promised.
