Community meeting planned on future of Ballard light rail

Seattle is hosting community meetings about the future of light rail service to Ballard, a neighboring city north of Seattle. A May 11 meeting at the National Nordic Museum will bring Sound Transit representatives together with community members to discuss three cost-cutting options that could stop the light rail line short of Ballard. While this affects regional transit planning, it’s primarily about Ballard’s infrastructure rather than direct Burien impact.
