Redmond's Downtown Rail Car Has Capacity For 800 Riders - Will Run Every Eight Minutes

Rendering of the Downtown Redmond Station

 Behind the sign two cranes are working on the Redmond light rail station / rail bed.  

"4-car" trains run every 8 minutes on weekdays.  Each "4-car" train can carry 800 riders, 16 wheelchairs, 8-12 bikes, and a desigated area for luggage.  But how will the riders and handicapped get to the station or park near it? Walk or take a LIME scooter? I think there's bus/van service but Sound Transit is silent on parking.
