Mayor Bruce Harrell joined the Seattle Department of Transportation, King County Metro, and other partners to celebrate the groundbreaking of the new RapidRide J Line.

The project also includes protected bike lanes, replacing a water main, and repaving Eastlake Ave E to bring numerous upgrades that will more closely connect Downtown Seattle to Belltown, South Lake Union, Eastlake, and the University District.

Speakers included:

Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell 

King County Executive Dow Constantine 

King County Metro General Manager Michelle Allison 

SDOT Director Greg Spotts 

Don Blakeney, Executive Director, The U District Partnership
