Spring District station is a future Link light rail station in Bellevue, Washington, United States. It will be a retained cut station on the 2 Line and serves the Spring District neighborhood, a transit-oriented development in Bellevue. It is expected to open in 2024 as part of the 2 Line's initial segment.[1]

Location

Spring District station is located between 120th and 124th avenues in the Spring District neighborhood of Bellevue.[2]

History

The station was originally named Spring District/120th in June 2015.[3] The name was shortened to Spring District station in October 2023 following a request from the Bellevue city government.[4]

Design

The station, designed by LMN Architects, will be built in a trench that places the platforms under street level.[5] To the west of the station, a wye junction will enable access to an operations and maintenance facility for Link trains.[6]
