The Downtown Seattle Association has a plan to help improve downtown’s Third Avenue as “unprecedented growth” has made the central street struggle with transportation, traffic, and crime, making the area unappealing for pedestrians.
The DSA believes, at its current growth rate, the city will reach its 2035 growth estimate this year, 13 years ahead of schedule, according to DSA’s newest published report. “Since Commute Seattle was founded in 2005, drive-alone car trips are down, and Seattle leads the nation in transit ridership,” the report read. “In 2017, Seattle logged more new transit trips per capita than any other city and grew transit ridership by a rate of 2.3%. Today, even as record numbers of workers come into downtown each day from around the region, only 25% commute alone by car.”
