SR 519 Construction Kick-Off

Transportation Secretary Paula Hammond joined WSDOT's partners in the SR 519 Intermodal Access Project Thursday, Oct. 23, 2008, to kick off Phase 2 of the project. The celebration took place under an at-times sunny sky atop The Safeco Field parking deck, which overlooks Edgar Martinez Way and SR 519.
Upon completion in 2010, this project will improve traffic flow and pedestrian and bicyclist safety by improving connections between I-90, I-5 and the Seattle waterfront and separating people, traffic and rail.
Joining Hammond in the celebration were Jill Satran, Gov. Gregoire's transportation advisor; Rep. Judy Clibborn; Seattle DOT Deputy Director Bob Powers; Port of Seattle Commissioner Pat Davis; and Dan Gatchet, area director of RoadLink.
