• Parshall: Everett needs robust bus connections to make light rail succeed (heraldnet.com) — Lynnwood’s experience as the current light rail terminus shows how strong bus connections and park-and-ride links can transform a city into a regional transit hub. Councilmember David Parshall describes how Community Transit’s dense bus network into Lynnwood Station boosts ridership, development, and local business, and argues Everett should consolidate transit and build similar connections to prepare for its own light rail future.
