Seattle Mariners fans can skip Seafair traffic this weekend by riding Sound Transit’s special Sounder service to the Mariners 1:10 p.m. game on Sunday against the Los Angeles Angels.
In celebration of Seafair Fleet Week, active duty military personnel can ride all Sound Transit and King County Metro transit services for free through Aug. 7. The regular adult fare is $4 each way.
The stadium-bound train from the south will depart Kent at 11;32 a.m. The return train departs King Street Station 35 minutes after the game.
A complete schedule of Sounder service to select Mariners games this season is available at soundtransit.org/schedules/event-services.
Special Sounder service is in addition to regular Link light rail service to and from Safeco Field. Link runs every 10 minutes on weekends and serves 15 stations including the University of Washington, Capitol Hill, downtown Seattle, SODO, Beacon Hill, Rainier Valley, Tukwila and SeaTac. Link’s Stadium and International District stations are a short walk from the stadium.
Many ST Express and King County Metro buses also drop off passengers near the stadium. Link and ST Express bus schedules are available at soundtransit.org/schedule. King County Metro bus schedules can be found at metro.kingcounty.gov/schedules.
Regular fares apply for all Sound Transit services. 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.
