Construction begins on RapidRide J Line project from University District to Downtown Seattle

King County Executive Dow Constantine joined Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell and local leaders at a groundbreaking ceremony for the RapidRide J Line [ https://www.seattle.gov/transportation/projects-and-programs/programs/transit-program/transit-plus-multimodal-corridor-program/rapidride-roosevelt ], King County Metro’s ninth RapidRide line. The project will create vital community connections, making it easier for Seattle residents, workers, and students to reach their destinations.

Community was closely consulted throughout the planning and design process. Here’s what residents, students, and local businesses prioritized:


* *Safer streets for everyone*: From students biking to school to families walking through the neighborhood, safety is the top priority.
* *Maintaining business access*: Ensuring load zones remain for local businesses, so they can continue to thrive.
* *Preserving the neighborhood qualities*: Protecting the tree canopy and planted medians that make Eastlake a great place to live.
* *Improved bike lanes*: Extending protection further north toward the University Bridge for a safer cycling experience.

The RapidRide J Line service is planned to launch in 2027. We encourage everyone to:


* *Stay Informed*: Sign up for updates [ https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flinks-1.govdelivery.com%2FCL0%2Fhttps%3A%252F%252Fpublic.govdelivery.com%252Faccounts%252FWASEATTLE%252Fsubscriber%252Ftopics%253Fqsp%3DWASEATTLE_8%2F1%2F010001926dad5648-d54ceea9-95b3-46d7-b202-6fee4b08ca3c-000000%2F6k9mJ5ywV_740CFBPQsqNBlEJ2-0eVFhHAYm3nBG1PI%3D373&data=05%7C02%7Casanders%40kingcounty.gov%7C3b51a56825e94c23dcd108dce7d23b0e%7Cbae5059a76f049d7999672dfe95d69c7%7C0%7C0%7C638640137328692800%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=4ekt49WXkVnD9X1013glJbje2jhgPJ5vZmZ6PgQ39r8%3D&reserved=0 ] from SDOT and King County Metro to receive the latest news on construction effects, street closures, and transit changes.
