After decades of planning and engineering, light rail will finally cross Lake Washington. The new Crosslake Connection opens on Saturday, March 28, linking Seattle and Bellevue by train for the first time. This milestone fulfills a vision dating back to the 1960s, when regional leaders first proposed a mass transit system connecting the two cities. The project required innovative engineering to place rail tracks on a floating bridge and years of collaboration among local and state agencies. The opening marks a major step forward for Central Puget Sound transit and a new era of regional connectivity.
