Seattle Seahawks fans can save on travel time, parking and gas by taking Sound Transit’s Sounder trains to the Seahawks 1:25 p.m. game this Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys.
Special Sounder service is in addition to regular Link light rail service to and from the stadiums. The one-way fare on Sounder from Kent to Seattle is $3.50.
Inbound trains from the south depart Lakewood at 9:50 and 10:30 a.m. and Sumner at 10:37 a.m. The first train leaving Lakewood is an express service that stops in South Tacoma, Tacoma and Puyallup before continuing directly to Seattle, where it arrives at King Street Station at 10:57 a.m.
The second train departs Sumner at 10:37 a.m. with stops in Auburn, Kent (10:52 a.m.) and Tukwila before reaching Seattle at 11:20 a.m. A third train leaves Lakewood at 10:30 and stops at all southline Sounder stations (11:15 a.m. Kent) before arriving at King Street Station at 11:43 a.m.
Return trains to Lakewood will depart King Street Station 10, 20 and 45 minutes after the game. An online schedule of Sounder trains serving Seahawks games is available at soundtransit.org/Schedules/Event-services/Seahawks.
Link runs every 10 minutes on Sunday and serves 13 stations in downtown Seattle, SODO, Beacon Hill, Rainier Valley, Tukwila and SeaTac. Link’s Stadium and International District stations are a short walk from CenturyLink Field.
Many ST Express buses also drop off passengers near the stadium. Link and ST Express bus schedules are available at soundtransit.org/Schedules.
Regular fares apply for all Sound Transit services. ORCA and all standing transit passes will be accepted. Getting an ORCA card is a great way to skip lines at ticket vending machines. Cards only cost $5 for adults, plus whatever amount a rider chooses to load in the card’s e-purse or the cost of a pass that is good for unlimited transit trips. ORCA works on trains, buses and ferries throughout the region. More information is available at orcacard.com.
