Did you know??
We’re jumping right in to highlight what’s hot and moving Seattle this week but just the tip-top crunchy crust (best parts) because did you know that our Project Coordination and Construction Office is tracking 901 projects and construction events happening – RIGHT – NOW? #TrueStory!
- ??? 137 of them have no defined mobility impacts.
- ??? 760+ have either single mobility impacts, arterial lane closures, or multiple mobility impacts. Wanna take a peek??
That said, there’s lots of coordination behind the scenes.
We love sharing resources.
Here are some quick resources for a list of events/construction lookahead (Yes! This info lives in more than one place!). We also have this info plopped on a map (aka traveler’s info map).
