Federal Way Downtown station is a future light rail station at the site of the Federal Way Transit Center, a bus station in Federal Way, Washington, United States. The bus station opened in 2006 and has 1,190 parking spaces available in its parking garage and surface lots. It is served by King County Metro, Pierce Transit, and Sound Transit Express buses and is the southern terminus of the RapidRide A Line. The transit center is located adjacent to The Commons at Federal Way shopping mall and Interstate 5, connected via a direct access ramp to its high-occupancy vehicle lanes.
A similar park-and-ride lot, on the south side of South 320th Street and east of the shopping mall, opened on November 5, 1979, using land donated by a local businessman.
The bus bays were moved south to the new light rail station in March 2025. Light rail service is scheduled to begin in 2026.
