Facility Naming Criteria
Sound Transit facilities will be named based on established criteria. Names will:
- Reflect the nature of the environment: neighborhoods, street names, landmarks, and geographic locations
- Be brief, easy to read, and easy to remember
- Comply with federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) guidelines and requirements and be limited to 30 characters
- Avoid commercial references because they may change, prove confusing to the public and be costly to change
- Avoid similar names or words in existing facility names
The Sound Transit Board will adopt permanent station names after public comment throughout final design.
