pretty certain that they're tearing this part of the highway down already? the wired article doesn't actually say where the proposal is for.
i used to jump off its other end (probably 40 feet to the water?) near the arboreteum. which was dope! but having an additional north-south highway would probably be better. seattle desperately needs to resolve the transportation issue.
- jschwartzi 11y agoDoes it have to be a highway? It might be better to add high-speed rail between Sea-Tac and Everett. Otherwise we just end up building more garages until our new highway is full again.
- huac 11y agoon a larger scale if you can convince companies to move outside seattle, then sure - but seattle was planned with 3 north-south highways in the city, and the commuter-based congestion is a result
- hamburglar 11y agoNo, you are talking about three different distinct highways. They are planning to tear down the viaduct, sr-99, on the west side of the city. This proposal is for covering i-5 through the center, and you are talking about jumping off sr-520 ramps (which I believe are now gone) in the arboretum on the east edge of the city.
