Are Link light rail trains accessible to people with disabilities?

Yes! Check out the accessibility features of the Link light rail trains. 


From soundtransit.org:


  • Link light rail trains feature level boarding at all stations, allowing passengers who use wheelchairs or other devices to simply roll aboard.

  • All light rail vehicles feature two spaces for riders who use wheelchairs or other mobility devices.

  • Handrails are available throughout all rail cars to assist with sitting, standing and balance.

  • An intercom button for communicating with the train operator is located near the accessible seating in each rail car. Just press the button and speak. This is useful if you need more time to get off the train.

  • At Link light rail stations, tactile waiting mats indicate where train doors will open and passengers can safely board, and at most stations bollards prevent passengers from inadvertently stepping into the empty space between cars.
