Was that ramp originally planned to be built and then go unused for six years waiting for the entire Portage Bay project to be done? Doesn't seem like very smart or efficient planning to me. No wonder this stuff takes FOREVER.
1:17 the width of this intersection is dangerous and polluting. You added far too many lanes where public transit and bikes are empirically more deserving of space than sov's. The Roanoke lid park will be better than montlake's due to road noise
The Mount Baker Highway between Maple Falls and Glacier needs potholes repaired. I’ve been asking nicely for a few years, I even sent in coordinates. One damaged area is 0.2 miles east from the Maple Falls DOT maintenance yard and the other is 0.8 miles east. I keep my vehicles roadworthy, how about y’all keep roadways vehicle-worthy. Thanks!
I can't fucking believe that a bridge work would go on for 20+ years. It was in planning phase for several years and the new bridge itself was open for use as early as 2016. How corrupt, inefficient and incompetent one needs to be to plan for additional work right after the bridge work would be delivered? Entire 520 continues to be severely congested for years! Who needs a viewpoint or park lid in exchange for 1+ hour traffic either east/west bound every day? Even that work was scheduled to be completed in 2024, now going to further delayed all the way to 2030. Utter corruption and incompetence!
Glad to see the progress but I'm glad I no longer have to commute over 520 while it's happening. Can we just agree not to start all over as soon as it's done? Thanks.
What determines whether a contractor company is "underrepresented?" Is it based on the owners of the company, or the employees of the company?

Great to see improvements! Make sure to keep the parks clear of homeless encampments. Otherwise, all this money will be completely wasted.
Allow mixed use zoning or small retail/restaurant next to the park, or, maybe the montlake lid will have too much road noise for its park to succeed

Good luck having anything useful happen with Inslee still in charge.

You are a car-brained misanthrope and wsdot's failure is in its car-brained traffic models

Awesome summary and video with the overlay of real images and rendering! Thanks for your DE&I focus!
