49 ways to keep downtown Seattle congestion in check
Metro has produced a list of
49 transit-related actions that when
combined with new investments in transit service and the arrival of Link
light rail, could be instrumental in mitigating the impacts of the
reconstruction of the Alaskan Way Viaduct and keep Seattle moving well
into the future. King County Executive
Ron Sims says the transit
blueprint promises to play a key role in keeping congestion in check, no
matter which Alaskan Way Viaduct solution is chosen. Metro took in conjunction with Seattle Department of Transportation
and other agencies to avoid feared gridlock when the Downtown Seattle
Bus Tunnel closed for construction in 2005. The King County Road Services Division owns and maintains a vast
inventory of roads and bridges in unincorporated areas of the county.
When a road needs something more than routine maintenance, a project is
created and added to the division’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP).
The adopted CIP for 2007-2012 is now online, and is fully downloadable. There is also a downloadable map to help you identify where a project is located. |
