Seattle's Alaskan Way Viaduct

Seattle has been grappling with what to do with the Alaskan Way Viaduct ever since the 2001 Nisqually Earthquake left this elevated freeway severely damaged. Expensive proposals for a tunnel or replacement viaduct have dominated the discussion, but a streets and transit alternative is emerging as the most sustainable option. Smart Mobility found significant flaws in the Washington State Department of Transportation analysis. To learn more, see "Removing Seattle viaduct is viable" or read Smart Mobility's Full Report.
