  • TRANSIT SYSTEMS and SERVICES in SEATTLE Author: Peter Lindsay Updated: May 20, 2015
    TRANSIT SYSTEMS AND SERVICES IN SEATTLE Author: Peter Lindsay Updated: May 20, 2015 INTRODUCTION On a typical weekday about 40 percent of commuters ride a bus or take a train to work in downtown Seattle. While the City of Seattle does not directly operate transit systems, the City does own transit assets. The City of Seattle’s Comprehensive Plan (page 3.9), states that “providing convenient and accessible transit service can help reduce reliance on single- occupant vehicles, slow the increase in environmental degradation associated with their use, and increase mobility without building new streets and highways.” On April 16, 2012, the City Council passed Resolution 31367, which adopted the Seattle Transit Master Plan (TMP). The TMP provides a 20-year look (through 2030) to the type of transit system that will be required to meet Seattle’s transit needs. It is an extensive update of the 2005 TMP, which identified key corridors linking urban villages and established performance standards for transit service. The 2012 TMP expanded that work and includes an evaluation of rail modes, rapid bus services, light rail station design, and capital infrastructure. The TMP addresses many critical issues, including: • Identification of the city’s most important transit corridors that carry high ridership today, as well as potential new ridership markets that will emerge as Seattle grows in jobs and new residents. • Selection of transit modes, such as bus rapid transit, light rail or streetcar that would work best on those corridors. • Integration of transit capital facilities and services with walking and biking infrastructure, as well as using transit to make great places.

  • Seattle Center Monorail Braking System Upgrade
    Seattle Center Monorail Braking System Upgrade Seattle, Washington ORIGINALLY BUILT TO SHOWCASE AMERICAN INNOVATION FOR THE 1962 WORLD’S FAIR, THE SEATTLE CENTER MONORAIL IS THE OLDEST AND MOST FAMOUS OF ALL U.S. MONORAIL SYSTEMS. AFTER PERFORMING RELIABLY FOR MORE THAN 43 YEARS, THE AGING SYSTEM WAS IN NEED OF AN UPGRADE PROGRAM TO MAINTAIN COMPLIANCE WITH TODAY’S PERFORMANCE STANDARDS. SCHWAGER DAVIS, INC. HAS BEEN PROVIDING ESSENTIAL SOLUTIONS EVER SINCE. The contract was performed on schedule, within budget and to the full satisfaction of the client. The Seattle Center Monorail in Washington State is the oldest operational monorail in the United States. Originally built to showcase American transportation innovation for the 1962 World’s Fair, the Alweg-designed system has since continued to operate as a downtown Seattle people mover and tourist attraction throughout five decades.. Although the monorail had undergone numerous upgrades and renovations over the years, in 2005 it was still operating in its original configuration as a driver-controlled, manually-operated system with few modern automated safety features. In early 2006, Schwager Davis, Inc. was contracted to review potential system safety hazards and to provide a solution to lower the g-forces of the existing emergency braking system. At the time, the emergency braking system stopped the trains too abruptly when applied, and was known to present a potential safety hazard. SDI provided a two-phase solution. Phase I involved analysis of the existing overly-abrupt emergency brakes and working with the owner’s control system integrator to provide a solution for the brakes along with measures to enable the semi-automated controls to provide a method of monitoring the operator’s speed and station approach performance.

  • Seattle Center
    Seattle Center Robert Nellams, Director (206) 684-7200 http://www.seattlecenter.com/ Department Overview Seattle Center is home to cultural and educational organizations, sports teams, festivals, community programs (including cultural and community celebrations), and entertainment facilities. Millions of people visit the 74-acre Seattle Center campus annually. Consistently rated as one of the City's top attractions, Seattle Center is a premier urban park whose purpose is to create exceptional events, experiences, and environments that delight and inspire the human spirit and build a stronger community. The history of Seattle Center dates back to a time well before it existed as a City department in its current form. Prior to the 1850s, the land on which Seattle Center sits was a part of a Native American trail which was later occupied by the David Denny family and eventually donated to the City of Seattle. In 1927, the new Civic Auditorium, now Marion Oliver McCaw Hall, and Arena, now the newly rebuilt Opera Center, were constructed with funding from a levy and a contribution from a local business owner. In 1939, a large military Armory was constructed. In 1948, the Memorial Stadium was built and the Memorial Wall was added in 1952. Finally, in 1962, the community pulled together these facilities and added new structures to host the Seattle World's Fair/Century 21 Exposition. At the conclusion of the fair, the City took ownership of most of the remaining facilities and campus grounds to create Seattle Center. Since its creation in 1963, Seattle Center has nurtured artistry and creativity by providing a home for and technical assistance to a wide variety of arts and cultural organizations.
