Mayor Harrell and SDOT Director Spotts celebrate the groundbreaking of the MLK Jr Way S Safety Project. The city is updating the street design on MLK Jr Way S to reduce driving lanes, build protected bike lanes, slow down cars, and create safer pedestrian connections to transit. These changes will improve safety and access to transit for people walking, rolling, biking, and driving between Mount Baker Station and the future Judkins Park Station. Construction begins this fall and will continue through 2024.

Speakers include:

Mayor Bruce Harrell, City of Seattle

Greg Spotts, Seattle Department of Transportation

Erik Weiss, Franklin High School Principal

Julie Timm, Sound Transit CEO

Lee Lambert, Cascade Bike Club Executive Director
