The Ballard Link Extension is a planned light rail project in Seattle, Washington, US, expanding part of Sound Transit's Link light rail system. The 7.1-mile (11.4 km) long extension is planned to connect Downtown Seattle to South Lake Union, Lower Queen Anne, Interbay, and Ballard, with seven new light rail stations and a new downtown tunnel. It is part of the Sound Transit 3 program, approved by voters in 2016, and is planned to open in 2039.

History

Ballard was originally an independent city and was connected to Downtown Seattle by an interurban railway built in 1891 by the West Street and North End Electric Railway, running through the Interbay and Lower Queen Anne neighborhoods of Seattle. Ballard was annexed by Seattle in 1907 and connected to the municipal streetcar system in 1914 by the Puget Sound Traction Light and Power Company. Ballard's streetcars were replaced by trolleybuses on June 30, 1940, after the opening of the new Ballard Bridge, and operated as Route 15 of the Seattle Transit System.

During the 20th century, several attempts to build a rapid transit system in the Seattle metropolitan area were made by city boosters, some of which included Ballard as a major destination. Civic planner Virgil Bogue's rejected 1911 comprehensive plan envisioned a subway line from Downtown Seattle to Golden Gardens Park at Northwest 85th Street, with elevated stations in Lower Queen Anne, Interbay, and Ballard.

Background

• 1968/70 Forward Thrust: station at 15th & Market, 15th & Dravus, continuing on to Greenwood and Downtown
  • 1966 proposal: $111 million for subway from N 110th to Belleve, via Ballard and Downtown
  • 1968: Ballard votes it down by 6-to-4
• Monorail Green Line

Existing service

• 2012: RapidRide D introduced to replace 15

Studies

• 2013 study with SDOT (streetcar?), funded by ST surplus after cuts from ST2 in 2010
  • Early options include Westlake corridor or Queen Anne hilltop station with 140-foot bridge
• 2014 routing options (including LQA/Fremont option)
• 2015 Candidate project
• 2016 ST3
  • Draft plan anticipated 2038 completion, accelerated to 2035 in May revision
  • Proposal to use suburban subarea to pay for tunnel construction
• Drawbridge/ "West" Interbay routing
• 2017: Preliminary engineering approved
• 2018: Proposed design includes Magnolia routing, SLU spacing, Chinatown options
• 2019: Alternative tunnels to 20th Avenue in Ballard would add $450M or more
• January 2022: Draft EIS released
• July 2022: City Council endorses 15th Avenue and Mercer Street station options
  • No decision made on Chinatown/ID station
• March 7, 2023: Constantine and Harrell announce North/South CID options with transfer at Pioneer Square; backlash from various groups
  • Option advanced alongside 4th Ave shallow in preferred alternative
  • City paid consultant to push for alternative
• March 23: Preferred alternative for EIS adopted
  • Denny Station remains the same, but Terry option included
  • Ballard tunnel under 15th Avenue instead of other options proposed

Proposals

• Westside bus tunnel

Route

The Ballard Extension will be a continuation of the Central Link light rail line serving Tacoma, South King County, and the Rainier Valley. In the project's preliminary design, the tunnel begins adjacent to the current Stadium station at 5th Avenue South and Royal Brougham Way. The tunnel runs parallel to the Downtown Seattle Transit Tunnel, which carries the Red and Blue lines, and stops at the expanded International District/Chinatown station. It continues north on 5th Avenue, stopping at a station at Madison Street, and then drifts to 6th Avenue, intersecting with the current Westlake station at Pine Street. The tunnel turns onto Westlake Avenue North, stopping near Denny Way, and makes a westward turn onto Republican Street, with a station near Aurora Avenue. It crosses under the Seattle Center and stops on its west side in the Lower Queen Anne area, before emerging onto an elevated guideway over Elliott Avenue West. Trains would stop at stations near the Smith Cove Cruise Ship Terminal and near West Dravus Street in Interbay before crossing the Lake Washington Ship Canal on a movable, 70-foot (21 m) bridge adjacent to the Ballard Bridge. The line would terminate at a station near the intersection of 15th Avenue Northwest and Northwest Market Street in Ballard.

3 Line (colored magenta) is a future light rail line in the Seattle metropolitan area in the U.S. state of Washington, planned as part of Sound Transit's Link light rail system. It will connect Everett and Snohomish County to Downtown Seattle and West Seattle. The line is planned to share tracks with the 2 Line from southern Everett to International District/Chinatown station.

The line is planned to reuse existing tracks that are part of the 1 Line and its future expansions; the 1 Line will then be rerouted through a new Downtown Seattle tunnel to be built for the Ballard Link Extension. The 16.3-mile (26.2 km) Everett Link Extension to the north of Lynnwood will have six stations and is scheduled to open between 2037 and 2041. The 4.7-mile-long (7.6 km) West Seattle Link Extension will include three new stations southwest of SODO station and is scheduled to open in 2032. The 3 Line was created as part of the Sound Transit 3 program, approved by voters in 2016, which included both projects.

History

The Everett Link Extension and West Seattle Link Extension are part of the Sound Transit 3 program, which was a ballot measure approved by voters on November 8, 2016. They were preceded by prior rail services in the early 20th century and various proposals to build a regional rapid transit system before the formation of Sound Transit in 1993. Buses also operate on both corridors with express and local service.

Everett section

Daily passenger train service between Seattle and Everett in Snohomish County was operated by the Great Northern Railway as part of longer intercity routes to Vancouver and Chicago. An electric interurban railway, named the Seattle–Everett Interurban, opened in 1910 and ran 29 miles (47 km) on an inland route that took 90 minutes to traverse from end to end. The route generally operated with hourly trains until it was discontinued in 1939; its right-of-way was later reused to build the Interurban Trail in the 1990s and 2000s. Intercity bus service to Downtown Seattle and the University of Washington campus was provided by Metro Transit commuter buses on the Interstate 5 corridor, which Community Transit took over in 1976. A set of Sound Transit Express routes contracted to Community Transit debuted in 1999; they carried 9,000 daily riders in 2019, while Community Transit's commuter routes carried X per day.

First Hill was a planned light rail station serving the First Hill neighborhood of Seattle, Washington, United States. The station, located under the intersection of Madison Street and Boylston Avenue, would have consisted of a split island platform situated 215 feet (66 m) under street level, connected to the surface by high-speed elevators.

First Hill station, conceived as part of the initial light rail system in the 1990s, was reorganized under the University Link Extension from Downtown Seattle to the University District in the early 2000s. It was to serve a major employment center, including nearby hospitals and the Seattle University campus, and one of the region's most densely populated neighborhoods. In 2005, Sound Transit determined that construction of the station would pose major risks to the project's schedule and jeopardized key federal grants. The Sound Transit Board voted to remove the station from the light rail project and replace it with an alternative transit system. The First Hill Streetcar, funded by Sound Transit, opened in 2016 to serve the neighborhood, in part as a replacement for the deleted station.

Early planning and approval

• Streetcar history
• Earlier proposals from Bogue, Forward Thrust, etc.
• 1992: Metro investigates light rail tunnel serving First Hill, Broadway/Capitol Hill, and Portage Bay to University District
  • First Hill already an urban center with high employment, considered a core of the regional growth plan
• October 1994: Adopted long-range plan from RTA includes light rail tunnel for First Hill
• 1995: Rejected RTA proposal included a potential light rail station serving First Hill
• 1996: Sound Move adopted by ST Board, including light rail station on Madison Street serving First Hill
• 1999-11-18: ST Board selects Central Link route, including station at E. Madison Street on First Hill
• 1999: Kauri Investments proposes 25-story apartment towers above entrances

Design

• Platforms: 215 ft underground
• 4 high-speed elevators per entrance (2 entrances, at Boylston and Summit); emergency stairs
• Above-ground plaza with TVMs and bike storage
• Estimated 2030 ridership: 11,000

Removal

• 2004: ST Board rejects proposal to skip First Hill, citing importance as major employment center
• 2005-07-28: ST Board removes First Hill station from preferred extension route, citing technical studies that found considerable engineering, geology and construction risks at station site that would have risked FTA funding
  • Estimated cost of $350 million for the 210-foot deep station, also risking $650 million in federal funding

Mitigation and streetcar line

Rapid transit proposals in Seattle

Structure like Proposed expansion of the New York City Subway

DYK for 50th anniversary of Forward Thrust (February 13, 2018): ...that Seattle's rejection of a mass transit system led to the creation of Atlanta's MARTA system?

Seattle, Washington, a major US city that was established in 1859, has seen several official plans in the 20th century to build a rapid transit system to serve the city. The city had traditionally been served by a streetcar network that was dissolved in 1941 and later a bus network that grew under various public agencies.

Forward Thrust

The rapid transit element of the Forward Thrust referendums, put before voters Seattle, Washington, in 1968 and 1970, would have consisted of a 47-mile (76 km) rail system and bus improvements.

Timeline

• Chronology
• 1965: Government report
• 1967: De Lew, Cather report

Details

• 47 miles, 32 stations
  • 27 miles for future expansion
• Long range plan: Airport, Rainier Valley, north

Aftermath

• MARTA funding
• "stupidest 'no' vote" - Slade Gorton
• Metro Transit in 1972; Sound Transit in 1996
• East Link directly follows East Route; 522 BRT; West Seattle and Ballard Link in ST3
