Construction Alerts
Southbound Martin Luther King Jr Way closed from E Madison St to E Harrison St
Martin Luther King Jr Way is closed to southbound vehicles from E Madison St to E Harrison St. The closure is necessary while we finish repaving the intersection and street. There is a signed detour for people driving and sidewalks remain open. We expect the closure to continue through January 2024. E Madison St is open to traffic in both directions. Access to E Arthur St and E Harrison St east of Martin Luther King Jr Way will be closed for about 1 week during this work. We expect the access closure to happen in early December. Access to these streets via 29th Ave will remain open.
Partial intersection closure at E Madison St and 19th Ave for up to 3 weekends
There will be up to 3 partial street closures at the intersection of E Madison St and 19th Ave while we finish installing electrical conduit and repaving the southern half of the intersection. During this work, access to southbound 19th Ave will be closed at E Madison St. E Madison St will remain open to traffic in both directions. There will be a signed detour for people driving and sidewalks will remain open. We expect the first weekend closure will occur the weekend of December 9-10.
Directional street closures
- 9th Ave between Spring St and Madison St is closed to northbound traffic. We expect the closure to continue into early March. Access to the driveways on the northbound side of the street is open. Access to these driveways will be closed from 7 PM Friday, Dec. 1 – 6 AM Monday, Dec. 4 while we repave the street at the driveways.
- 13th Ave between E Pike St and E Madison St is closed to southbound traffic. We expect the closure to continue through the end of the year. Access to the parking lot and loading zone on the west side of the street remains open. Vehicles can access these areas in the northbound direction.
Throughout construction, buses will get rerouted and bus stops will temporarily close or relocate. We're working closely with our partners at King County Metro to reduce impacts to bus riders and prioritize restoring buses to their regular routes and opening bus stops. To receive the most up to date information about bus detours and impacts to bus stops, sign up for King County Metro's Transit Alerts.
You can also use digital mapping tools to plan your bus trip and stay informed about bus detours, bus stop closures, and relocated bus stops. For questions about bus routes or bus stops, you can contact King County Metro customer service at 1 (206) 553-3000.
We are working to maintain pedestrian access by installing protected walkways in the street around construction areas. There is not always enough space to install a protected walkway around construction, and sometimes we need to close a crosswalk or sidewalk. There are signs to indicate where sidewalks or crosswalks are closed. People should follow all signed detours.
More information on sidewalk work can be found in our project email updates.
Nightwork is occasionally required. When this happens, the contractor obtains the necessary permits to work at night. The permits allow the contractor to work at all times, but restricts the types of activities that can occur at night. For example, impact work and pure tone back-up beepers cannot be used past 10 PM.
Nightwork is scheduled for the following nights:
- 12/1: Demolishing the road in front of the driveways on 9th Ave between Madison St and Spring St
- 12/8: Demolishing the road in front of the driveways on Madison St between 3rd Ave and 4th Ave
- 12/15: Demolishing the road in front of the driveways on Madison St between 17th Ave and 18th Ave

Project Overview
The RapidRide G Line (formerly Madison Bus Rapid Transit) project brings new, reliable, and frequent bus service between 1st Ave in downtown Seattle to Martin Luther King Jr Way. The route will serve densely developed neighborhoods in downtown Seattle, First Hill, Capitol Hill, the Central District, and Madison Valley. The project is a partnership with King County Metro, who will operate the new RapidRide G Line. SDOT is making street improvements to Madison St and Spring St to support the new bus line. One of SDOT’s largest and most complex capital projects, it is expected to be completed in 2024.
The planning for this project started in 2012 as part of the Seattle Transit Master Plan. Madison St from downtown Seattle to Madison Valley was identified as a key transit hub that needed more frequent and reliable bus service. Visit King County Metro’s RapidRide webpage to learn more about the benefits of RapidRide and other RapidRide routes.
Project Area
The project went through a rigorous process to develop the design with community input and secure federal funding to cover almost half of the project cost. The project is designed to meet the following goals:
Transit reliability
- Buses will come every 6 minutes during peak times
- Bus only lanes and bus priority at traffic signals reduce travel time (by 5 minutes from Colman Dock to Madison Valley) and improve reliability
- All-door boarding and doors on both sides, so people can board efficiently from new center-running stations (between 9th Ave and 13th Ave)
- ORCA readers at the stations to pay before boarding
- Real-time bus arrival information at stations
Accessibility
- Station platforms level with bus so no stairs to climb
- New curb bulbs, crosswalks, sidewalks, curb ramps, and bike lanes in sections
Equity
- Serves historically underserved neighborhoods with an affordable and reliable transportation option
- Improved reliability and accessibility makes riding the bus a better transportation option for people who rely on taking the bus now and in the future
Upgrades and vibrancy
- Updated utilities and street paving
- New art and landscaping
Street and lane layout
- Repaving the street and changing the lane layout, including widening Madison by 1 to 2 feet in a few locations and adding bus lanes
- Installing five new traffic signals (8th Ave and Spring St, 10th Ave and Madison St, 18th Ave and Madison St, 19th Ave and Union St, Harrison St and MLK) and upgrading existing signals
Bus infrastructure
- Building new bus platforms along the project area, including 4 center-running stations between 9th and 12th avenues
- Placing new bus shelters and other station amenities
- Installing new poles and relocating some overhead trolley wires to match the new street layout
Utilities
- Upgrading the streetlight network in the First Hill neighborhood
- Installing detention tanks to manage stormwater runoff (Madison St between 12th and 13th avenues, 10th between Madison and Seneca streets, and E Pine St between 15th and 16th avenues)
- Water and sewer main replacement east of Broadway
Walking, biking, and community infrastructure
- Building curb bulbs to shorten pedestrian crossings along side streets (Madison St at the intersections of Minor Ave, 10th Ave, 12th Ave, Union St, Pike St, 15th Ave, 18th Ave, 19th Ave, Denny St, John St, and 27th Ave; Spring St at the intersections of 7th, 8th, and 9th avenues)
- Building new and upgrading many existing curb ramps
- Completing landscaping and tree removal/tree replacements throughout the project area, and adding significant landscaping enhancements on Madison St over I-5
- Creating public art (where Madison St, 14th Ave, and Pike St converge)
- Adding bike connections
The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) has allocated $80.5 million in federal funding to the Madison Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) - RapidRide G Line project*. This funding covers about 60% of the total project costs. Other funding sources for the project include the Move Seattle Levy, Sound Transit ST3, King County, and Washington State funds.
*Federal funding sources include: $59.9 million from the Small Starts Program; $9.6 million from Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) grants; and $10.9 million from the 2021 American Recovery Plan Act
Project Schedule, Progress, and Milestones
The project is about 75% complete as of Q4 2023. Construction started in late 2021 and we expect to finish major construction by summer 2024. RapidRide G service is scheduled to begin by Fall 2024.

The new center-running stations and center bus lanes will require restricting left turns at several intersections. People driving will need to use alternate routes and make left turns where they are permitted. Click on the links below to see maps showing intersections where left turns will be restricted and alternative routes for drivers.
About Construction
We're working to make progress on construction as safely and efficiently as possible. Typical working hours are weekdays between 7 AM - 5 PM. Occasionally the contractor needs to work at night or on the weekends. When night work is necessary, the contractor must obtain a nighttime noise variance to complete construction activities within the allowable nighttime noise limits.
We are working with the construction contractor to build the project as efficiently as possible while maintaining access and mobility, but you can expect to experience some disruptions from construction activities throughout the corridor. Construction activities generally include:
- Demolition and removals of the street and sidewalk
- Utility work (including planned water outages), installation of temporary lighting and new lighting
- Rebuilding the road and sidewalks and applying temporary and permanent pavement markings
During construction, people can expect:
- Noise, dust, and vibrations from pavement breaking, grinding, and other activities
- Truck traffic to haul equipment and materials in and out of construction areas
- Temporary parking restrictions that can be months at a time
- Traffic shifts
- Lane, intersection, crosswalk, and sidewalk closures and detours
- Temporary driveway and doorway impacts
- Bus reroutes and temporary bus stop closures and relocations
- Temporary water shut-offs
- Placement of temporary utilities while new permanent utilities are installed
- Materials and equipment staged within the work area throughout construction
We know construction is difficult on neighbors. Our team is working to coordinate with neighbors, the construction team, and across City departments to lessen the burden of construction as much as possible including:
- Relocating load zones before and during construction
- Working closely with SDOT's Hub team to coordinate with other public and private construction in the area
- Creating signage tailored for the area with wayfinding and construction information
- Outreach team:
- Serves as liaison between construction team and neighbors
- Connects with neighbors to have direct points of contact and learn about needs
- Attends construction meetings and coordinates with construction team to accommodate neighbors as much as possible
- Communicates with neighbors through mailings, social media, email updates, flyers, door-to-door, virtual meetings, phone calls, and web updates
Supporting local businesses
We’re working closely with businesses to maintain pedestrian access during construction and make construction more manageable. Please continue to support local businesses in person or virtually via Central Area Collaborative and Intentionalist. The Central Area Collaborative is partnering with Intentionalist to support Black-owned and small businesses in the Central District neighborhood.
Staging area at E Arthur Pl and Martin Luther King Jr Way E with Still Essential Workers art
In preparation for construction, the team identified 6 potential locations for the construction contractor to store equipment and materials near the project area called staging areas. These sites were selected to reduce the construction footprint on Madison St and to enable the contractor to build the project more efficiently. All locations are in the City's right-of-way. Changes to local traffic and access will be required with some of the staging areas, and we're working with neighbors to make modifications as needed.
Staging details:
- Contractors will not be allowed to park personal vehicles within staging areas
- Timing will depend on the location. Staging will begin as soon as construction starts and will remain for the duration of construction
- Business and resident access will be maintained
- The construction contractor may propose different locations that SDOT would need to approve
Potential locations:
1. Corner of east side of 10th Ave and south side of E Seneca St
2. West side of 7th Ave between Spring and Madison streets
3. North side of E Union St and 13th Ave
4. South side of E Pike St between 13th and 14th avenues
5. North side of E Pine St and West side of 18th Ave
6. South side of E Arthur PL and north side of E Harrison St
How long will construction last?
Construction began in fall 2021 and will be completed in 2024. The RapidRide G Line is expected to begin service in fall 2024.
Will construction block driveways?
Yes. Driveway restrictions needed for paving activities are typically short-term. In spring 2021, we met with many property owners and building managers to discuss specifics for each driveway. Residents and property managers will be notified in advance of driveway closures.
Will there be sidewalk closures?
Yes. In most cases, a walkway will be maintained on at least one side of the street. We'll work with the contractor to maintain access to businesses and residences.
How will parking be impacted?
When the team is working in a particular work zone, there are often parking restrictions. We are working to keep our work areas as small as we can to minimize parking impacts and lift parking restrictions outside of working hours when possible. Occasionally, parking will be temporarily restricted at all times of the day, 7 days a week. When street parking is impacted, people will need to park on side streets or off-street parking lots. Once the project is complete, street parking on much of Madison St will be removed permanently. Load zones will also be affected, and new load zones will be added on side streets before construction starts in a given area.
What happens to my bus stop during construction?
Many bus stops will be temporarily relocated or closed during construction. To stay up to date about current bus stop closures and relocations, please sign up for Metro's Rider Alerts. If a stop is relocated or a bus is detoured, signs will also be posted along the corridor.
