  • SR 520, I-5 to Medina: Bridge Replacement and HOV Project Area Encompasses One of the Most Diverse and Complex Human and Natural Landscapes in the Puget Sound Region
    Chapter 4: The Project Area’s Environment Chapter 4: The Project Area’s Environment The SR 520, I-5 to Medina: Bridge Replacement and HOV Project area encompasses one of the most diverse and complex human and natural landscapes in the Puget Sound region. It includes areas in Seattle from I-5 to the Lake Washington shore, the waters of Lake Washington, and a portion of the Eastside communities and neighborhoods from the eastern shoreline of the lake to Evergreen Point Road. It also includes densely developed urban and suburban areas and some of the most critical natural areas and sensitive ecosystems that remain in the urban growth area. The project area includes the following: ▪ Seattle neighborhoods—Eastlake, Portage Bay/Roanoke, North Capitol Hill, Montlake, University District, Laurelhurst, and Madison Park ▪ The Lake Washington ecosystem and the bays, streams, and wetlands that are associated with it ▪ The Eastside community of Medina ▪ Usual and accustomed fishing areas of the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe, who have historically used the area’s fisheries resources and has treaty rights for their protection and use This chapter describes what the project area is like today, setting the stage for the project’s effects described in Chapters 5 and 6. 4.1 Transportation The configuration of SR 520 today, with its inadequate shoulders and gaps in HOV lanes, makes the corridor especially prone to traffic congestion. And, as commuters on SR 520 know, the corridor is overloaded with traffic on a regular basis. Population and employment continue to grow both on the Eastside and in Seattle, resulting in new travel patterns and a steady rise in the number of vehicles crossing the Evergreen Point Bridge.

    Braking News The Official Newsletter of the Stratford Brakettes/Junior Brakettes/18U Select Brakettes Volumne 3,Issue 2 Editor: Bob Baird (203) 218-1066 December 2020 FAU SLUGGER ANSWERED THE ‘CALL’ FOR THE STRATFORD BRAKETTES Stephanie Call never got the opportunity to represent the United States on the softball diamond.
