Permits will reserve parking spots at two Sounder stations

Starting in April, riders can buy a permit to reserve a space at the Mukilteo and Edmonds Sounder stations.

The transit agency has slowly been moving toward charging people who use the lots, many of which fill early in the morning.

Sound Transit has said this move will offer “increased certainty and ensure more equitable access to parking.”

“These new permit options are intended to provide a reliable option for riders to find parking without arriving earlier than needed,” said Sound Transit in a press release.

For solo drivers, the permit will cost $90 a month. People who qualify for the low-income fare will pay $30. Permits also will be offered free to carpools of two or more. Those who use them will be required to ride transit at least 12 times a month.
