Should resolve to NO. The page on Sound Transit's website now lists the opening date as "2024/2025" and I can't find anything to suggest it has opened already.

Sound Transit still lists 2023, but the Seattle Transit Blog is reporting a delay likely to 2024: https://seattletransitblog.com/2022/05/02/east-link-opening-likely-delayed-until-2024/
Similarly: - "Problem with concrete track supports now plagues East Link light rail project" (https://www.rtands.com/track-construction/track-structure/bridges-tunnels/problem-with-concrete-track-supports-now-plagues-east-link-light-rail-project/) - "Completion Date for Sound Transit’s East Link Light Rail Delayed" (https://downtownbellevue.com/2022/04/29/completion-date-sound-transits-east-link-light-rail-delayed/) -- Though, no new estimate has been provided
