SUMMARY:Open house will cover future of transit in north Tukwila on Wednesday night\, Sept. 20
DESCRIPTION:Tukwila Mayor Thomas McLeod will host a community open house Wednesday\, Sept. 30 on regional transit in north Tukwila\, including updates on the long planned Boeing Access Road light rail station and other possible transit options. \nThe open house will be held from 6 to 7:30 p.m. at the Museum of Flight (map below)\, according to a social media post from McLeod. Sound Transit\, the City of Tukwila and community partners are expected to participate. \nMcLeod said the Boeing Access Road station remains a key transit priority for Tukwila and South King County. \n“The City has consistently reminded Sound Transit that it is important to fulfill this 30-year-old commitment to South King County\,” McLeod said. \nThis spring\, the Sound Transit Board adopted Resolution No. R2026-11 to address affordability challenges facing voter approved Sound Transit 3 projects. McLeod\, who serves on the Sound Transit Board\, said he was involved in developing the resolution and advocated for projects and investments important to Tukwila and South King County. \nAs part of the resolution\, Sound Transit committed to moving forward with full design of the Boeing Access Road station\, McLeod said. Tukwila staff and Sound Transit are continuing work on project design\, environmental review and right of way coordination. \nHowever\, McLeod said the resolution does not currently provide a path to construction for the station. He said the South King Subarea is supporting several past and ongoing construction projects\, limiting funding available for future projects such as Boeing Access Road. \nTukwila staff are working with federal and state government affairs teams to identify possible third party funding to help deliver the station\, McLeod said. \nMcLeod said he added an amendment\, supported by the Sound Transit Board\, directing Sound Transit to identify cost savings and alternative financing and delivery options for the station. That work must be developed and presented to the full board by February 2027. \n“I will continue pushing Sound Transit to follow through on this commitment\,” McLeod said. \nMcLeod also said he secured $10 million in the resolution for Sound Transit to work with Tukwila\, King County Metro and other partners to explore alternative transit options in north Tukwila while work continues toward the Boeing Access Road station. \n“There is still work ahead\, but we are making progress\,” McLeod said. \n“As Mayor and as a Sound Transit Board member\, I am committed to delivering more transit options for Tukwila and South King County\, McLeod said. “I hope you will join us on September 30 to learn more and share your thoughts about the future of transit in our community.”
