Seattle Department of Transportation and King County Metro will continue our partnership to deliver RapidRide Roosevelt Project (RapidRide J Line)
|
|
However, to support King County Metro’s reduced financial resources, we are looking at the approach, in coordination with the Federal Transit Administration (our grant agency), of shortening the RapidRide Roosevelt Project (RapidRide J Line) route to end near the future U District Link Light Rail Station, instead of as previously planned near the Roosevelt station. This shorter route would still improve transit speed, reliability, safety, and connections between the Belltown, South Lake Union, Eastlake, and University District neighborhoods. Transit connections between the Roosevelt and U District neighborhoods would be provided using other bus routes and Link light rail.

We'll share additional information, provide opportunities for input, and provide updates on the environmental review process once we've had a chance to evaluate the route north of the University Bridge. The remainder of the route south of the University bridge will remain the same, including the protected bicycle lanes planned on Eastlake Ave E as part of the RapidRide Roosevelt Project (RapidRide J Line).
