The Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) and King County Metro have been working in partnership on the Route 40 Transit-Plus Multimodal Corridor Project. The goal of the project is to reduce bus travel times by 5-10% during peak periods, improve transit service reliability, and make it safer and easier to access transit.
In Spring 2021, we asked for feedback on ideas being developed for six intersections along the Route 40 corridor, as well as improvements across the entire project area. Your feedback has now been incorporated into three updated preliminary design concepts we want to share with the community.
Learn more about the input we’ve received so far on this project.
We are launching an Online Open House and survey to collect feedback on the updated design concepts. Please go to the “Share your Feedback” tab and give us your thoughts. You can visit through 11:59 PM on Sunday, June 19.
The survey results will be compiled and shared with the design team as we move into our next design phase (60%) milestone.
For more information on the project, visit the Route 40 Transit-Plus Multimodal Project webpage. This project is funded by a combination of local and state Funds. The source of local funding is the City of Seattle’s voter-approved Levy to Move Seattle, state funding, and funding from Metro.
Walking lights at 11 Ave at Leary Way is not long enough to cross the streets and not bright enough to see very well.
