During Alternatives Development, Sound Transit will assess the representative project included in the Sound Transit 3 Plan (ST3) and further refine the specific route, station locations and other project elements based on additional public engagement and technical analysis. The representative project itself is the result of extensive, years-long planning and public involvement work, including high-capacity transit studies, the process to update the agency’s long-range plan, and the work that developed the ST3 Plan approved by voters in 2016. Sound Transit will engage the public and agencies in an intensive external engagement process that will lead to the Sound Transit Board identifying a Preferred Alternative, as well as other alternatives to evaluate in an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). The WSBLE Project would provide fast, reliable light rail connections to dense residential and job centers throughout the region and add a new downtown Seattle light rail tunnel to provide efficient operating capacity for the entire regional system. The extension to West Seattle would operate on a 4.7-mile elevated guideway from downtown Seattle to West Seattle’s Alaska Junction neighborhood and include a new rail-only fixed span bridge across the Duwamish River. The West Seattle extension would serve one at-grade station in the stadium area and four elevated stations in the SODO, Delridge, Avalon and Alaska Junction areas. The Ballard extension would operate 7.1 miles from downtown Seattle to Ballard’s Market Street area and include a new 3.3-mile rail-only tunnel from the International District/Chinatown to South Lake Union and Seattle Center/Uptown. The representative project includes an elevated guideway along 15th Avenue West and Elliott Avenue West and a rail-only movable bridge over Salmon Bay. The Ballard extension would serve three elevated stations in Ballard, Interbay and near Smith Cove, and six tunnel stations at Seattle Center, South Lake Union, Denny, Westlake, midtown and International District/Chinatown areas. A map of both extensions is shown on Figure 1-1 (West Seattle and Ballard Link Extensions). 1.2 Purpose of report The primary objective of this report is to identify aspects of prior work that are of interest to the WSBLE Project, including findings related to transportation conditions within the study area, past study recommendations and how they were incorporated into the representative project, and policy directives of relevance in local and regional planning documents.

Major investments in the regional transit system did not take place until the mid-1990s with the passage of Sound Move, and later the Sound Transit 2 (ST2) Plan of 2008. Sound Move, adopted by the voters of the Central Puget Sound Regional Transit District (Sound Transit) in 1996, identified West Seattle, Fauntleroy, Burien, and Renton as candidates for regional express bus service. Sound Transit’s updated Regional Transit Long-Range Plan (2005) (RTLP) outlined the goals and objectives for HCT. Since its original adoption, the RTLP has included an HCT linkage between Ballard and Downtown Seattle, and the plan has also recommended the West Seattle-to- Downtown Seattle route for express bus service along with the monorail that was proposed by the Elevated Transportation Company (or Seattle Monorail Project) at that time. The ST2 Plan, adopted by the voters in 2008, provided additional funding and expanded the original Sound Move transportation package. The plan designated the downtown Seattle-West Seattle-Burien and Burien-Renton corridors as candidates for specific HCT studies. The ST2 Plan served as the fiscally-constrained plan specifying capital projects and the investment strategy to further implementation

INTRODUCTION Many important and long planned transportation and development projects are scheduled for con- struction in Downtown Seattle in the coming years. While these investments are essential to support economic development and job growth and to enhance Downtown’s stature as the region’s premier location to live, work, shop and play, in the short-term they present complicated challenges for con- venient and reliable access to and through Downtown. The Downtown Seattle Association (DSA) and its partners, Historic South Downtown (HSD) and the Seat- tle Department of Transportation (SDOT), seek to ensure that Downtown Seattle survives and prospers during the extraordinarily high level of construction activity that will occur in the coming years.

  • Seattle Monorail Project the New Plan

    Seattle Monorail Project the New Plan

    Seattle Monorail Project The New Plan Overview of the Monorail Ballot Measures In September 2005, the Seattle Popular Monorail Authority (Seattle Monorail Project or SMP) Board of Directors approved placing two ballot measures before the voters this November. The first measure (Proposition 1) would modify the 2002 Seattle Popular Monorail Plan, authorizing an initial monorail phase of 10 miles and 12 stations. Phasing would save over $330 million from the original plan, resulting in an estimated project cost of $1.7 billion. The second measure (Proposition 2) would provide for a majority of the Board to be elected rather than appointed. These materials have been prepared to inform the general public about factual issues relevant to these propositions. They are not intended to influence voters to support or oppose either measure. Proposition 1 - Phased Construction Proposition 1 asks voters for authorization to construct an initial 10-mile, 12-station monorail line. If approved by the voters, SMP will initially construct a rapid transit system that links Dravus Station (Interbay) and Alaska Junction Station (West Seattle) to Downtown. With connections to light rail, streetcar and buses, the initial line will serve an expected 42,200 riders per day at start-up in 2010 and 57,000 riders per day in 2030. Stations will serve major activity centers and Downtown, with trains departing every six minutes during the commute hours from all stations. The remainder of the 14-mile Green Line will be completed if the City approves construction permits following review of SMP’s Finance Plan. Project costs have been reduced by over $330 million to an estimated $1.7 billion.

    A Different Kind of Gentrification: Seattle and Its Relationship with Industrial Land

    A Different Kind of Gentrification: Seattle and its Relationship with Industrial Land David Tomporowski A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Urban Planning University of Washington 2019 Committee: Edward McCormack Christine Bae Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Department of Urban Design and Planning College of Built Environments ©Copyright 2019 David Tomporowski University of Washington Abstract A Different Kind of Gentrification: Seattle and its Relationship with Industrial Land David Tomporowski Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Edward McCormack Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering / Department of Urban Design and Planning Industry in Seattle often talks about how they are facing their own kind of gentrification. Rising property values, encroaching pressure for different land uses, and choking transportation all loom as reasons for industrial businesses to relocate out of the city. This research explores this phenomenon of industrial gentrification through a case study of Seattle’s most prominent industrial area: the SODO (“South Of Downtown”) neighborhood. My primary research question asks what the perception and reality of the state of industrial land designation and industrial land use gentrification in Seattle is. Secondary research questions involve asking how industrial land designation and industrial land use can be defined in Seattle, what percentage of land is zoned industrial in the SODO neighborhood, and what percentage of the land use is considered industrial in the SODO neighborhood. Finally, subsequent effects on freight transportation and goods movement will be considered. By surveying actual industrial land use compared to i industrially-zoned land, one can conclude whether industry’s complaints are accurate and whether attempts to protect industrial land uses are working.

    Early Scoping Summary Report April 2018 West Seattle and Ballard Link Extensions Summary Purpose Sound Transit conducted early scoping for the West Seattle and Ballard Link Extensions (WSBLE) Project in Seattle, Washington, from February 2 through March 5, 2018. The early scoping started the public planning and environmental processes for the project. This report describes how Sound Transit conducted early scoping and summarizes the comments received from local and regulatory agencies, tribes, and the public during the early scoping period. This information will be considered by Sound Transit as it identifies and studies alternatives for the WSBLE Project. The Early Scoping Process Sound Transit published an early scoping notice in the Washington State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) register on February 2, 2018, which initiated early scoping and started the 30-day comment period. Additional public notification was provided with mailed postcards, print and online advertisements, and social media notices. Three public open houses and an agency meeting were held during this comment period, as well as an online open house from February 12 to March 5, 2018. Sound Transit requested comments on the purpose and need, the Representative Project, other potential alternatives, and potential community benefits and impacts. Comments were accepted by mail, email, online comment forms, and on comment boards and maps at the open houses (both in person and online).
