SAVE BUS ROUTE #2ONE OF THE MOST HEAVILY USED ROUTES
Metro proposes to significantly change Route #2 inSeptember 2012. This summary of impacts, with actionsyou can take, is prepared by [email protected].
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE IMPACTS OF CHANGE
ELIMINATES ROUTE #2 SERVICE ON SENECA &THIRD AVENUE TO QUEEN ANNE.
MOVES ROUTE #2, WESTOF 12TH, TO MADISON-FIRST AVENUE - MARION WITH NO CONTINUINGSERVICE NORTH OF MADISON TO QUEEN ANNE.
SAFETY & ACCESSIBILITY
No flat transfer stops on Route #2 downtown,
requiring transfers downtown on steep hills. Route #2 bus stops will be in less active locations,
impacting safety of evening and nighttime transfers.
DELAY, TRANSFERS & ACCESS
Madison is more congested than Seneca andadded buses on Madison will further increasetraffic congestion and delays.
Transfers extend trip time and proposed route nolonger serves many existing destinations directly,adding travel time and causing a loss of ridership.
Requires transfers for any destination north of Madison, including Light Rail Benaroya
Westlake Seattle Center at Mercer.
No longer connects to Light Rail or to the newRapidRide at Seneca and Third Avenue.
Removes service on Seneca residential corridor from Harvard Avenue to Seventh Avenue.
These changes disproportionately impactseniors, disabled and vulnerable populations
