    Wilburton Station is the station on the 2 Line right after Downtown Bellevue Station. It is located…read moreright next to Whole Foods and across the street from Kaiser Permanente. The new Bellevue Connector Bridge also provides walking distance access to shops like Uwajimaya, Best Buy and Home Depot which are nearby. It is one of the least used stations, but I use it somewhat often to get to Whole Foods when I don't want to deal with parking there on a busy day. I can take the train, buy my groceries and hop back on the train afterward. The wait for a train is at most 10 minutes, which is convenient enough. This stop will become more useful when the full 2 Line opens next month.

    The public art around the station is beautiful, powerful, and painful. This is Eastside 101. It'll…read moretell you about the history of the Wilburton light rail station site. The artwork is west of the station at surface level and along the NE 8th St. Bridge/Bellevue Connector Bridge. Parking is difficult so when the light rail 2 Line connects Seattle to the Eastside (sometime in 2025?...it keeps getting delayed...shocker, smh) it'll be easier for Seattleites to access the public art. You can also park for free at the South Bellevue Station/South Bellevue Park & Ride near the I-90/I-405 interchange if you're coming from Seattle or from the Southend. After you park you can take the light rail 2 Line NB up to Wilburton. If you're already on the Eastside and need cultural enrichment then check this out during your free time.

    Initially opening in 1981 as a Park and Ride for Bellevue residents to take the bus into Seattle,…read morethe South Bellevue Station was converted to be the temporary southernmost station of the new '2' light-rail line, opening in 2024. It is above ground, and the tracks are elevated, with escalators and elevators providing easier access. Our family had a chance to visit, parking in one of the 1,500 nearby parking stalls, and taking the 2 line to it's northernmost terminus in downtown Redmond, and back. In the near future, the '2' line will continue to Seattle, eventually going all the way to Lynnwood. Some timings: 17:03 - left South Bellevue 17:06 - East Main 17:09 - Bellevue Downtown 17:10 - Wilburton 17:12 - Spring District 17:14 - Belred 17:18 - Overlake Village 17:20 - Redmond Technology 17:24 - Marymoore Village 17:28 - Downtown Redmond

    The former South Bellevue Park & Ride has been transformed into South Bellevue Station. This is the…read morecurrent western terminus of the 2 Line until it extends into Seattle in the near future. Supposedly later in 2025 or in 2026. Similar to the project at Redmond Technology Station, this facility has been upgraded tremendously. This station now has covered waiting areas for westbound buses and the surface level parking lot has been replaced by a large parking garage. This makes taking the bus into downtown Seattle for major sporting events and concerts more convenient. It also offers a faster way to get to a location in Bellevue or Redmond on the 2 Line rather than transferring buses in Downtown Bellevue like before. Also I believe the garage may be used to access the Mercer Slough Nature Park which has an entrance right next to it. Thus making it very convenient to take public transportation to access this park's features which include a blueberry farm. I am glad that the public transportation connectivity in Bellevue is getting better and better with this station as evidence of this.

When we refused to pay him cash, he acted as if he was going to drive away with our 4 suitcases and 3 pieces of carry-on luggage still in the back of his vehicle, refusing to open the trunk lid until paid. Given $25 cash, he more-or-less dumped our luggage from the back of the taxi, then told us he wanted a tip as well (no!) -- and when I asked him for a receipt, he said he'd get one. He sat down in the driver's seat, started the taxi, backed into our luggage -- nearly running us over -- and left. Unfortunately, my cellphone was in my carry-on and I couldn't get to it to photograph him or his cab ID number before he began backing up. Little driver, huge ego, terrifying driving. Totally irresponsible. Outright thievery.

Had he not bitched, I might have walked where I was going, but if your going to try and ruin my vacation with your little man talk, then I'm getting in. The complaint from him was how long he waited for the line to put him in front. Not My Problem. You chose this as a profession, and clearly you don't care for people. You even slapped your hand hard on the console so loud it hurt my ears, in your anger. I'm a tourist in your city, and your attitude was not deserved. A real conversation with us might have served us all better. But anger was all you had. vicious you were. we still tipped you cause I'm not YOU. I used to live in Seattle, and I've found men like you should go back under the rock you drove in on. No One deserves to be treated with your mysogyny. find another day job.

It runs every 10 minutes during daylight hours, and is one way to go to Microsoft's main campus. The cost is $2.75 each way with free transfers, most easily accessible via an Orca card (rechargable on-line, but not yet replaceable with a smartphone). We used the NE 24th St & Bellevue Redmon Rd stop, which was covered and had a display showing when to expect the next bus. It's a busy route, serviced by an articulated bus for both routes...definitely too long for streets (and corners) not equipped for it.

    I like this RapidRide route. It is the only one servicing the Eastside. B Line travels between…read moreBellevue Transit Center and Redmond Transit Center. The bus services downtown Bellevue, Crossroads, Overlake, Microsoft and downtown Redmond neighborhoods. The route replaced two King County Metro routes, 230 and 253. Basically combining these services to offer more frequent service that were faster as they skipped bus stops that used to be serviced by the old routes. The RapidRide buses are new and have free Wi-Fi. You can also swipe your ORCA card to pay for your fare at the bus stop card reader before the bus arrives. This allows you to board the bus at one of the exit doors rather than having to pay at the driver side door upon entering. In general, buses run every 15 minutes for most of the day. During weekday rush hours, there is service every 10 minutes. While in the late evenings, there is a 30 minute wait. I don't use the bus often, but do when I am headed to the airport as I can take this bus to connect with the Sound Transit route 560 at Bellevue Transit Center. Though it takes longer to get to the airport, it saves me a bundle over parking at or taking a taxi/Uber to the airport. More often than not, it takes longer to get where you need to on public transportation. But I think this RapidRide line is great since it is convenient and is helping to minimize the delay. Particularly useful when I need to get to downtown Bellevue in a timely manner.

I settled on Seattle Towncars as the best combination of price and service. I've now been using this company exclusively for two years and over 200 drives. The cars are always very clean and neat inside, and always in top working condition. The drivers are professional, courteous and friendly. More importantly, they are skilled and safe drivers. They'll get you where you're going as promptly as possible. I've NEVER had a driver from this company cause me any concern over their driving. These folks are top notch. They almost always arrive early. If the driver is not in my driveway ~10 minutes before I'm scheduled for pickup, I'll get a phone call explaining heavy traffic, etc. The few times this has happened, the driver's been on time, just not as early as usual. I'm pretty OK with a driver never EVER being late. Maybe if I traveled at more "peak hours" it would be a different story, but I couldn't say -- they've never missed a call. And for return trips from the airport, they're a phone call and five minutes away. Every time. I can't speak to Katie's review as I wasn't there, but it's unfortunate that it happened. Another review asked about "press X for immediate service". I'm not sure what is difficult about "press 1 for a new reservation or press 2 for a pick-up"...? But I can't gainsay those reviews, nor would I want to. All I can offer is that my experience has been different. In over 200 trips, Seattle Towncars has been nothing but consistent,, fair and responsive. I'm a businessman, nothing more. I want to get what I pay for, and what I pay for is reliable, consistent and safe transportation. I settled on Seattle Towncars because they deliver, and at a competitive price. I recommend that you give them a chance to earn your business.
