Link will get better over time of course and I'm happy for that, but I haven't seen any traffic crisis on the hill that's severely affecting peoples lives day-to-day: 30 minute commute is not bad.
- bobthepanda 7y agoIt depends where in Capitol Hill where you're trying to get to/from since Capitol Hill is much bigger than the station's walkshed, but definitely during the rush, east-west roads with bus routes are very slow, especially across I-5. I've definitely spent way too much time on the 8 or the 10, but unfortunately the First Hill station was never built due to poor geology. Definitely much worse if some large event is happening (Seattle Center, Convention Center, even some games at the stadiums can screw up Downtown traffic.)
