Light Rail Stations

Thirteen light rail stations are proposed for the LYNX Blue Line Extension Northeast Corridor rapid transit alignment based on initial identification in the Major Investment Study (MIS) completed in 1998 and further studies during the current Preliminary Engineering study phase.  Station locations are based on access, site characteristics, compatibility with surrounding development, potential development and public comments.  Most stations will be serviced by CATS' bus network.
