Swift Green Line Extension

Community Transit is expanding our Swift bus rapid transit (BRT) network by extending the Swift Green Line. The Swift Green Line Extension will continue past Canyon Park Park & Ride, into downtown Bothell, near UW Bothell/Cascadia College area, and end east of I-405.

The timeline for the Swift Green Line Extension aligns with the City of Bothell’s Bothell Way NE Multimodal Project and the Sound Transit Stride S3 Line. We anticipate that you’ll be able to ride the Swift Green Line Extension starting as soon as 2030.
