I-405 BRT January 2019
Barriers to Station Access
This map has been closed for comment since February 14, 2019. Please see additional detail below and previous comments on the map.
The I-405 BRT Project includes funding to improve non-motorized access (like cycling, walking, etc.) near our BRT facilities. We have worked with local jurisdictions to identify the following barriers to accessing the future BRT station locations:
- Missing link/lack of network
- Wide roadway
- Inadequate lighting
- Parking lots blocking access
- Impediments to ADA access
- Lack of pedestrian crossing infrastructure
Each map includes a radius of .5 miles around the BRT stations. This distance was selected as it provides an approximate 10-minute walk to a station depending on access and topography. Sound Transit will work with our local and regional partners to evaluate potential improvements that address these barriers.
