Drive, Bike, Bus or Uber 2 miles to the UW light rail station if you don’t want to deal with parking downtown! It takes only 4-10 minutes to light rail to the capital hill, pioneer square, and chinatown stations! Trains may run every 10 minutes due to covid, but the light rail will take the parking, traffic, and uber fare stress out of your day downtown!
