Keeping Seattle Moving
Reconnecting Seattle to the Waterfront
Now that we are halfway to funding the Alaskan Way Tunnel, it’s
time to start thinking about how we can keep Seattle moving during
construction. It’s a real balancing act, and we need your input.
At a series of meetings this week, the public is invited to learn
about the construction and traffic options, and talk with state and
city transportation officials about what they prefer.
By replacing the Viaduct with a tunnel, we also get the chance to
transform our waterfront. The Central Waterfront Concept Plan is an
exciting vision, and we look forward to sharing it with you. There
will be presentations and/or information about tunnel construction
and the waterfront plan at meetings, as well as city and state experts
to answer your questions.
- Learn about construction of the tunnel from city and state experts;
- Give your ideas on how to keep traffic moving during construction;
- Comment on the City of Seattle's Central Waterfront Concept Plan.
