East Link is a voter-approved project to extend light rail from Seattle, across Lake Washington on Interstate 90, through Bellevue and on to the Overlake Transit Center in Redmond.

A Sound Transit train

It is a Sound Transit project, but Bellevue residents, directly and through the City Council, are offering input about the route through Bellevue. In November 2011, the council signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Sound Transit detailing city contributions for a downtown light rail tunnel and design modifications to minimize impacts of the rail line on neighborhoods.

These web pages provide background and additional information on Bellevue's involvement with East Link. To learn more about East Link or Sound Transit East Link.
