What's Happening Now?

*"What’s happening in Ballard?"*


* *NW Market St* between Ballard Ave NW and 22nd Ave NW 
*

Crews are finishing concrete and sidewalk work on the north side of NW Market St.


*

The sidewalk work on Leary Ave NW, just south of NW Market St is now complete. Sidewalk improvements on 22nd Ave NW and NW Market St are scheduled to be complete by mid-October.   


*

Neighbors should expect to see temporary lane reductions and parking restrictions around this area through October during non-peak hours (9 AM-3 PM), on weekdays and weekends. Please follow detour signage.


* *Leary Ave NW*
* Between 20th Ave NW and NW Market St:
* Crews continue to pour new concrete for the improved sidewalk.
* Construction for the new large concrete sidewalk extensions [ https://links-1.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Froute40.infocommunity.org%2Fballard-neighborhood%2F%3Futm_medium=email%26utm_source=govdelivery/1/0100019211a9af9a-6c41c670-506c-4054-9d18-d20971623632-000000/WbFIZ8fuz41Muvt3CnKTwQuNtWy8knbes9dbXFHShWg=371 ] near Olympic Athletic Club continues through October. Crews will complete remaining curb and gutter work before moving into paving. Vehicles can expect partial street closures on 20th Ave NW, between Leary Ave NW and Ballard Ave NW for the remainder of the month. Median islands will also be added at the midblock crosswalk of 20th Ave NW and Leary Ave NW. Please use caution and pay attention to your surroundings if you're walking or driving through this intersection.  

*

Between NW Dock Pl and NW Ione Pl:


*

Crews continue their curb ramps, and bus zone improvement work on Leary Ave NW between NW Dock Pl and NW Ione Pl. Community members can expect larger bus bulbs in both directions of Leary Ave NW. New bus stop foundations are scheduled to be installed on the south side of Leary Ave NW later this month. Crews will follow up on the north side shortly thereafter. This will require continued sidewalk demolition, electrical trenching, and curb work that could last through October. Pedestrians will be directed to use detours down to Ballard Ave NW.


*

Neighbors should expect to see temporary lane reductions, parking restrictions, sidewalk detours, and temporary driveway impacts in select areas of Leary Ave NW throughout the Fall. Construction is typically weekdays and select weekends from 7 AM - 4 PM.

*What’s happening in North Seattle?*


* *Holman Rd NW (*between 3rd Avenue NW and NW 103rd St)
* Work on Holman Rd NW has not started yet. We will continue to share updates when we expect to begin. Once construction starts, the contractor will need to have temporary lane restrictions. Travelers can expect delays. Pedestrians will be detoured to the northwest side of Holman Road NW.

* *North Aurora*
* We are hoping to wrap up work on the bus zone improvements on Aurora Ave N and N 105th St/N Northgate Way by this Fall.

*What’s happening in Fremont and Westlake?*

While civil work—like Watermain Utilities [ https://us-west-2.protection.sophos.com/?d=seattle.gov&h=985951abc6ac4196a4f89b629711c9cc&i=NjVlMjQ4NzM0ODMzNjA1ZjY4NzdkMzdm&p=m&s=AVNPUEhUT0NFTkNSWVBUSVaiFoiqX5ybopHZjcODhPKpKhzdcYuPHKZYQTaBKC_ith3rU1j7drIM3RRO4coWMP8&t=UldhV0RLZVg3Q1lQeHlIdjRUbk5kZS9aS1NJNGtOSzMwZnowSFVWNmJxZz0%3D&u=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuc2VhdHRsZS5nb3YvZG9jdW1lbnRzL0RlcGFydG1lbnRzL1NET1QvVHJhbnNpdFByb2dyYW0vUmFwaWRSaWRlL1JvdXRlJTIwNDAvMjAyNF8wMjE1X1J0NDBfV2F0ZXJtYWluLnBkZj91dG1fbWVkaXVtPWVtYWlsJnV0bV9zb3VyY2U9Z292ZGVsaXZlcnk%3D&utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery ], pavement upgrades, and sidewalks—in Fremont won’t begin until early 2025, community members may continue to see crews doing some short-term prep work before major construction occurs.   Please note, there may be temporary traffic impacts.

Westlake Ave N construction activities could begin as early as Fall 2024.

Project Benefits

We are excited that the Route 40 Transit Plus Multimodal Project is underway and appreciate your patience during construction while we provide safe, fast, and reliable transit infrastructure.

Seattle's 21.1% growth in population [ https://www.seattle.gov/opcd/population-and-demographics/about-seattle?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery ] between 2010 and 2020 was more than twice the rates of growth the city saw over each of the two preceding decades and Route 40 serves some of our fastest growing neighborhoods in the City. It travels through Northgate, Crown Hill, Loyal Heights, Ballard, Fremont, South Lake Union, Downtown Seattle, and Pioneer Square neighborhoods. More than 95,000 people live within a half-mile of Route 40.

Transit ridership is continuing to increase as more people move into our neighborhoods and look for sustainable ways to get to where they need to go. From 2021 to Fall 2023 bus ridership is up 40% citywide and Route 40 remains one of King County Metro’s highest ridership routes.  As of August 2023, daily ridership on Route 40 totaled over 7,500 people on the average workday. Please read more about transit ridership trends [ https://seattletransitblog.com/2024/05/20/metro-update-on-ridership-recovery-and-service-planning/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery ] .

 As part of the Route 40 improvements, we expect to see average transit travel times reduced by 8.7% during the peak periods, which equates to 5.7 minutes saved per trip. With just over 70 trips planned for the Route 40 during the peak periods, those minutes saved add up to help increase reliability for people riding the route (over 31,000 person-hours saved per day).  To learn more about transit improvements from other completed transit projects, please click here [ https://content.govdelivery.com/bulletins/gd/WASEATTLE-3958cb1?wgt_ref=WASEATTLE_WIDGET_420 ].

Transit can move more people per hour compared to other modes of transportation.

What you can expect during construction

* Temporary lane reductions
* Temporary driveway closures
* Temporary bus stop closures
* Temporary parking restrictions
* Temporary sidewalk detours
* Temporary storage of construction supplies in the street  
* Temporary noise, dust and vibrations
* Bus stop relocations
* Drainage work: This involves digging trenches to help manage water flow
* Signal pole foundation excavation: This work involves digging for the pole foundations prior to when we order custom signal poles which takes a while to build and to make sure we know there are no underground obstructions  
* Trenching for conduit: This involves digging trenches to lay down pipes or cables underground
* Sidewalk curb bulb out: This involves making the curbs stick outward for safety or accessibility
* Mill and fill overlay: This is when the top layer of the road gets removed and replaced with new asphalt

The construction timeline is always subject to change depending on weather conditions and materials availability. We are committed to keeping you informed and maintaining open communication throughout the remainder of this project.To learn more about the project and designs, visit our online open house.  [ https://route40.infocommunity.org/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery ]
