Meydenbauer Center: events and getting there

Getting to Meydenbauer Center

Bellevue Downtown station and the Bellevue Transit Center are across the street.

Light rail

From the airport, walk to the station (baggage claim carousel 16, up one floor, across the skybridge and through the garage) and ride the 1 Line north to Int'l Dist/Chinatown (34 minutes by Sound Transit's timetable). Change there to a 2 Line train toward Downtown Redmond: 22 minutes across Lake Washington to Bellevue Downtown station, trains every 8 to 10 minutes most of the day. The station is across NE 6th St from the Center. With the change it's about an hour; $3.00 one way for adults, free for 18 and under. Sound Transit: 2 Line schedule
