| Improve the Mercer Corridor
|
The highway boundaries of I-5 and Aurora Avenue have isolated South Lake Union and created a snarled road system through the neighborhood. Today, thanks to
possibilities offered by the Alaskan Way Viaduct reconstruction, and the sale of the City's Bay Freeway properties, transportation solutions can focus on movement within and
connections to adjacent neighborhoods.

The Mayor's Strategy:
Support an Alaskan Way Viaduct Alternative that reconnects South Lake Union to Seattle Center and to neighborhoods beyond
Continue study of two-way "boulevard" design for Mercer Avenue
Redesign Valley Street as pedestrian-oriented with easy connections to South Lake Union Park, waterfront restaurants and other retail businesses
Advocate funding for Mercer Corridor Plan in the regional transportation funding package
