[nfbwatlk] {Disarmed} FW: Changes Considered for Seattle Stops on 2nd Ave

[Jacob Struiksma]

All Community Transit buses make stops on 2nd Avenue in downtown Seattle
either inbound or outbound. Due to several pending construction projects in
Seattle and an expected increase in traffic congestion, King County Metro
Transit is considering reducing the number of bus stops on 2nd Avenue.
Reducing the number of stops would improve the on-time performance of buses
and the flow of traffic overall. 

Metro has evaluated two alternatives for the stop changes and is seeking
public input. The recommended changes would close the stops at 2nd & Seneca
(often identified as 2nd & University) and 2nd & Madison and reassign the
stop at 2nd & Spring to a "white" zone, to be served by Community Transit
routes. 

The proposed changes would take place with the February 2011 service change.
