Which corridors are you referring to? What neighborhood? You've piqued my interest, as someone who knows way too much about light rail & commuter rail in this city.
- WalterBright 9y agoThe eastside rail corridor is one. It stretches from Renton to Bothell. https://www.google.com/maps/place/Bellevue,+WA/@47.5681081,-122.1856787,16z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x54906bcfa3a66041:0xbacf5482ead00765!8m2!3d47.6101497!4d-122.2015159 https://www.google.com/maps/place/Bellevue,+WA/@47.5681081,-... Look on the west side of 405, there's a faint grey line. That's it. It used to be labeled on Google maps as "Eastside Rail Corridor", but that has been erased. Given the total silence about it during the Seattle Transit debate, the Seattle Times never ever mentioning it in any of their articles about light rail in King County, and the gradual removal of it from maps, would almost suggest there's a conspiracy. Converting it to light rail would double the trackage of Seattle Transit at minimal cost, and would connect the entire east side to Seattle and the airport.
