Swift Gold Line
Community Transit is preparing to dramatically improve transit service for Arlington, Marysville, and Everett by expanding the Swift bus rapid transit (BRT) network with the Swift Gold Line.
Swift BRT service will offer shorter waits between buses, faster and more reliable service, and connections to congestion-free Link light rail that arrives in Lynnwood in August 2024 and Everett in future years. BRT service is particularly effective at creating economic and environmental benefits along with expanded travel options. CT is exploring options for maximizing the benefits it will bring riders and community members.
The Swift Gold Line project is currently in the Scoping Study Phase. At the end of this phase, Community Transit will select a preferred route and station locations, also known as a locally preferred alternative.
