Service Begins for Sound Transit's Northgate Link
Shannon & Wilson congratulates Sound Transit on the October 2 opening of Northgate Link, expanding their northern-most route linking north Seattle to Downtown.
The line expands the system by 4.3-miles and adds the U-District and Roosevelt underground stations and an elevated station at Northgate.
Shannon & Wilson’s geotechnical engineering contributions on the project included performing explorations and testing for the entire alignment and providing recommendations for a retained portal cut, retained fill, elevated guideway, elevated station, and other ancillary structures around the Northgate station.
