Multi-Modal Improvements Coming to Green Lake & Wallingford!
The Green Lake and Wallingford Paving & Multi-Modal Improvements project has been out talking to the community about changes coming to Green Lake and Wallingford. Design is nearly complete, and we’ve made changes based on the design feedback we heard from the community earlier this year.
Map of Green Lake and Wallingford paving area; new/upgraded bike facilities and connections with existing bike facilities; and on-street parking removal.
What we heard
In July, more than 670 people joined us at drop-in sessions and many visited our online open house, to learn about streetscape improvements and give feedback.
In review of design and construction planning, we heard support for our general safety and mobility goals, and some suggestions for changes. We’ve summarized everything we heard and our response to the feedback; for details, read our Feedback and Action Plan: What We Heard and What We’re Doing document!
Some changes based on your feedback.
Improving safety for people walking on N 40th St | We’re adding rapid flashing beacons and repairing some stretches of sidewalk on 40th.
Reviewing east-west bike connections in Wallingford | We’re taking a step back to reconsider the design for bike improvements on N 40th St. In the coming months, we’ll evaluate other potential improvements to east-west bike connections in Wallingford.
Evaluating options for people walking and biking through the N 50th St, Stone Way N, and E Green Lake Way N intersection | We’re looking at ways to make improvements at this intersection by clearly marking crossings and improving visibility and sightlines.
Partnering with Seattle Parks and Recreation to explore an alternative to the planned bike improvements on Green Lake Way N | Our original design included a new signal on Green Lake Way N at N 52nd St. We’re now partnering with Seattle Parks and Recreation to explore transforming a portion of the planting strip bordering the Lower Woodland Parks Playfield parking lot into a 1-way protected bike lane.
Making the NE Ravenna Blvd, NE 71st St and E Green Lake Way N intersection more predictable | We’re squaring up this intersection as much as possible by adding curb bulbs and widening the west side sidewalk. We’re also adding a rapid flashing beacon one block south of the intersection.
Improving safety and visibility at intersections | We’re adding “no parking” signs 20 feet from all intersections in the project area; on the north side of N 80th St on either side of the Ashworth Ave N intersection, we’ll add paint and post curb bulbs to improve visibility.
Reducing speed limits to improve traffic safety for all | We’ll post a 25 MPH speed limit around the east side of Green Lake, which is a reduction from the current 30 MPH speed limit.
Visit the project web site for details!
What’s next.
We’ll continue to engage you this fall and next year as we prepare for construction. This includes opportunities for public comment in early 2019 regarding bike improvements on N 40th St.
We anticipate completing the design by the end of 2018, beginning construction in late spring of 2019, and completing the project in 2020. For more information, please visit our project webpage.
This Weekend: #Realign99 SB & NB #ReviveI5 closures.
Looking S from Marion at new Alaskan Way striping in front of the ferry terminal.
Making the switch.
It’s time to make the switch – Friday PM to Monday AM – to #realign99 from under the Alaskan Way Viaduct to just west of it. The traffic switch is an important step towards viaduct demolition, which starts after the new tunnel opens in early 2019.
Also, this weekend, is SR 99 and I-5 work, making it important to plan ahead for any travel!
Southbound – #Realign99 Alaskan Way:
Closure: 9 PM Oct. 12 to 5 AM Oct. 15
South end of Battery St Tunnel to Spokane St to complete paving near Atlantic St – critical preparation for next year’s SR 99 tunnel opening.
Alaskan Way along the waterfront:
Closure: 8 PM Oct. 13 to 10 AM Oct. 14
Alaskan Way along the waterfront, between Railroad Way S and Wall St to finish striping a new four-lane alignment and begin striping almost 250 new, temporary parking spots underneath the viaduct. Washington State Ferries’ Colman Dock will remain accessible.
Northbound #ReviveI5:
Reduced to 2 lanes: 8 PM Oct. 13 to 10 AM Oct. 14
Martin Luther King Jr Way to Olive Way, plus several ramps to replace pavement and expansion joints.
Plan ahead. Expect delays.
To limit congestion, consider:
- Using transit, particularly light rail.
- Postponing discretionary trips. Fewer trips = fewer cars = less backup.
- Before hitting the road, get real-time Revive I-5 traffic information on mobile devices using the WSDOT traffic app, and tracking #ReviveI5 on the WSDOT Traffic Twitter feed.
How you get around downtown is changing. The Alaskan Way Viaduct will permanently close January 11, 2109, for three weeks of work to #realign99 into the new SR 99 tunnel. WSDOT encourages everyone to plan ahead for this closure – the longest highway closure ever in the Seattle area!
Sept. 21 | Seattle PARK(ing) Day – JOIN US!
Did you know that there are over 485 parks in Seattle… and for one day only on September 21, we are adding 62 more!
Globally – Locally.
Friday, September 21 is PARK(ing) Day, a one-day international event that began in 2005. On-street parking spaces are temporarily transformed into pop-up parks, a global idea providing opportunities to showcase locally!
Our PARK(ing) Day is part of the Seattle Design Festival, two weeks of citywide activities, tours, presentations, workshops and exhibits exploring the role of design in our city.
Creative, compelling, unusual fun!
PARK(ing) Day pop-up parks feature a variety of activities, including games, crafts, photo booths, and treats! We’ve seen everything from art installations to live music, and from an urban jungle to a swimming pool (no water involved). 😊
Participate!
Pop-up parks offer a place to relax and enjoy our public spaces, just like our permanent parks around Seattle. By participating in PARK(ing) Day, you have the chance to connect with community members, express yourself creatively, and most importantly, enjoy yourself!
Find a Pop-Up Park.
Click to access interactive map.
Wondering where you can find a pop-up park on September 21? Check out our interactive map to find a pop-up park near you.
Along with the parks hosted all over the city, we’ve created neighborhood clusters of pop-up parks in seven neighborhoods in Seattle. Clusters allow you to visit multiple parks at a time and enjoy everything the neighborhood has to offer. This year, clusters are located in:
• Beacon Hill
• Capitol Hill
• Delridge
• University District
• Lake City
• Rainier Beach
• Pioneer Square
Parks will be popping up all over the city from 9 AM – 7 PM; refer to the interactive map for hours, and then RSVP to the event on Facebook and share with your friends!
Pop-ups with the most votes…
When you check out pop-up parks on PARK(ing) Day, be sure to note which ones you like best and why… because on event day, you’ll be able to vote (online survey) for your favorites in each of three categories:
- Most creative use of space,
- Most connected to community, and
- Most interactive programming.
If you want to help celebrate the PARK(ing) Day award winners, swing by the celebratory after-party, hosted at the Center for Architecture and Design from 7 – 9 PM. We can’t wait to see who wins and honor ingenuity!
If you’d like to participate in PARK(ing) Day next year, be sure to keep an eye on our PARK(ing) Day program page. If you have any questions, please contact Kadie Bell Sata at kadie.bell@seattle.gov or at 206-386-4575.

Preserving Waves under Viaduct | Saturday relocation
Image by Seattle P-I photographer Meryl Schenker | bit.ly/2PHUKzk
Waves of art installed 16 years ago under the Alaskan Way Viaduct, are washing away…to storage. On August 30 of 2002, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer ran the story, ‘Wave Rave Cave’ is artwork by day, club-scape by night, with a photo of carpenter Michael Graham working on the installation.
With the near future Alaskan Way Viaduct (AWV) closure and demolition, the sculptures, at the corner of Western Ave and Bell St, are relocating for safe keeping.
Wave goodbye Friday night, September 7, for the last expected light-up of this tide…

Travel to new temporary home.
Wave sculptures storage destination | Image by Google Maps
The Seattle Office of Arts & Culture notes, a new site for the artwork has yet to be determined–so it’s safe storage for now.
What you can expect:
To preserve the waves creation, crews will carefully remove the pieces, then drive them to the City’s Nickerson Place North storage area, near the Fremont Cut. Look for traffic control (TC) signs and a flagger along W Nickerson St, near 13th Ave W, and intermittent traffic slowdowns with deliveries.
For the relocation, the Bridges and Roadway Structures team needs room to maneuver a forklift to a loading truck and trailer, impacting sidewalks at both pick-up and delivery and the bike lane along Western. Be ready to make way for art, as it heads north in several waves (pun intended)!
Saturday, September 8 | 7 AM – 3 PM
Closures |
- Bike lane on Western Ave, at Bell St: intermittent; hour-long.
- East Sidewalk on Western Ave, under AWV SB: intermittent; hour-long.
– Signs will direct people to a marked crosswalk on Western Ave.
– A side walk spotter will guide passersby to a safe distance from the work.
- No parking on Western Ave, between Battery and Bell streets.
- No parking on Bell St, at Western Ave (Fri PM – Mon AM)
Thank you for your patience as this artwork tide comes in!
