Madison BRT - RapidRide G Line: Downtown Seattle to First Hill to Madison Valley

Reliability  

• Buses will come at least every 10 minutes throughout the day
• Bus only lanes and bus priority at traffic signals reduce travel time (by 5 minutes from Colman Dock to Madison Valley) and improve reliability

Compare existing and future conditions 

比較現有和未來情況 

To limit the amount of time that a particular location is disrupted by construction, the construction contractor's major construction activities will be contained within work zones of up to 1,500 feet (about 4-5 blocks) - with at least 1,500 feet between each major work zone. The contractor is permitted to work in up to 4 work zones at a time.  

We'll monitor that the contractor completes work in one zone and opens it up to traffic before moving on to the next.

Minor construction activities that temporarily close a lane for short periods of time will be allowed outside the major work zones and water main work may occur outside the work zones. 

為了限制在特定地點因施工而中斷的時間，施工承包商的主要施工活動將限制在 1,500 英尺以內（約 4-5 個街區）的工作區內--每個主要工作區之間至少有 1,500 英尺的距離，承包商一次最多可以在 4 個工作區工作。 

 我們將監督承包商在完成一個區域的工作並開放交通後，才能進入下一個區域。  

允許在主要工作區外進行臨時關閉車道的小型施工活動，並可能在工作區外進行水管工程。 

We will know more about construction hours and timing once the construction contractor develops their schedule. 

一旦施工承包商制定了他們的時間表，我們將了解更多有關施工的鐘點和時間安排。 

Construction will generally include: 

• Demolition and removals
• Utility work (including planned water outages)

In some locations, only the top layer of asphalt will be removed and repaved. A similar type of work is done for rebuilding sidewalks and driveways. After installing the new road, we will return to paint new striping on the road and install protected bike lanes in sections as designed. 

我們將拆除和重建項目區沿線的大部分道路和一些人行道。此時，我們將重建路基，然後在上面鋪上瀝青或混凝土。在某些地方，只會移除和重新鋪設最頂層的瀝青。類似的方法也用在重建人行道和車道上。新的道路鋪設完成後，我們將返回劃線，並按設計分段安裝受保護的自行車道。

Frequently asked questions during construction 

施工過程中的常見問題 

How long will construction last? 

施工將持續多久？ 

Construction is anticipated to start in fall 2021. We expect construction to take about 2.5 years to complete and the RapidRide G Line to open in 2024. The construction team will complete the work in up to 4 segments at a time. 

施工預計將於 2021 年秋季開始。我們預計施工需要大約 2.5 年的時間才能完成，RapidRide G Line 將於 2024 年開通。施工團隊將一次完成最多 4 個路段的工作。 

Will construction block driveways? 

施工會阻塞私家車道嗎？ 

Yes. Driveway restrictions needed for paving activities are typically short-term. In spring 2021, we met with many property owners and building managers to discuss specifics for each driveway. Feel free to contact us to request a meeting. 

是的。鋪路活動所需的私家車道限制通常是短暫的。 2021 年春季，我們會見了許多業主和樓房經理，討論每條私家車道的具體細節。請隨時與我們聯繫以安排會面。

Will there be sidewalk closures? 

人行道會封閉嗎？ 

Yes. In most cases, a walkway will be maintained on at least one side of the street. We'll work with the contractor to maintain access to businesses and residences. 

是的。在大多數情況下，至少在街道的一側會保留一條人行道。我們將與承包商合作，以維持對企業和住宅的通行。 

How will parking be impacted? 

停車會受到怎樣的影響？ 

When the team is working in a particular work zone, parking will be restricted 24/7 for the duration of the work. People will need to park on side streets or off-street parking lots. Parking on much of the corridor will be removed permanently (see this map for parking specifics). Load zones will also be affected, and new load zones will be added on side streets before construction starts. 

當團隊在特定工作區工作時，在工作期間停車將受到 24/7 的限制。人們需要將車停在小街或街外停車場。大部分走廊的停車位將被永久移除（有關停車詳情，請參閱此地圖）。裝卸區也將受到影響，在施工開始前，將在小街上增加新的裝卸區。 

What happens to my bus stop during construction? 

施工期間我的巴士站會怎樣？ 

Many bus stops will be temporarily relocated or closed during construction. To stay up to date about current bus stop closures and relocations, please sign up for Metro's Rider Alerts. If a stop is relocated or a bus is detoured, signs will also be posted along the corridor. 

許多公交車站將在施工期間臨時搬遷或關閉。要及時了解當前巴士站關閉和搬遷的最新信息，請註冊 Metro 的 Rider Alerts。如果車站搬遷或公交車繞道行駛，走廊沿線也會張貼標誌。 

Dates when work is restricted 

限制工作的日期 

• Thanksgiving Day to New Years Day (winter holiday moratorium) - no construction on 1st Ave 
• Pride Fest - no construction between Broadway and 15th Ave 
• Capitol Hill Block Party - no construction between Broadway and 15th Ave 

Hospital zone - no closures during the first month after construction starts between I-5 and Broadway 

• 感恩節到元旦（寒假暫停）--1st Ave不施工 
• 驕傲節--Broadway 和 15th Ave之間不施工
• 國會山街區派對--Broadway 和15th Ave之間不施工 

醫院區--在 I-5 和Broadway之間的施工開始後的第一個月內不關閉 

Staging 

佈場 

In preparation for construction, the team has identified seven potential locations for the construction contractor to store equipment and materials near the project area called staging areas. These sites were selected to reduce the construction footprint on Madison St and to enable the contractor to build the project more efficiently. All locations are in the City's right-of-way. Changes to local traffic and access will be required with some of the staging areas, and we're working with neighbors to make modifications as needed. 

為了對施工做準備，團隊為施工承包商確定了七個可能的位置，以便在項目區域附近儲存設備和材料，稱為集結區。選擇這些地點是為了減少Madison街的施工足跡，並使承包商能夠更有效地建設項目。所有地點都在城市的通行權內。一些集結區將會對本地交通和通行產生更改，我們正在與鄰居合作根據需要進行修改。 

Staging details 

佈場細節 

• Staging sites will be surrounded by a temporary chain-link fence 
• Contractors will not be allowed to park personal vehicles within staging areas 
• Timing will depend on the location but staging could begin as soon as construction starts and may remain for the duration of construction 
• Business and resident access will be maintained 

The construction contractor may propose different locations that SDOT would need to approve 

• 集結區將被臨時的鐵絲網圍起來 
• 承包商不得在集結區停放私人車輛 
• 時間將取決於位置，但集結區隨施工一同開始，並可能在施工期間一直保持 
• 企業和居民的通行將保持不變  

施工承包商可以建議不同地點，但需要SDOT 的批准 

Potential locations:

在施工期間支持鄰居 

我們知道施工對鄰居產生困難。我們的團隊正在努力與鄰居、施工隊和市政府各部門進行協調，以盡可能減輕施工負擔，包括： 

• Relocating load zones before construction starts  
• Working closely with SDOT's Hub team to coordinate with other public and private construction in the area  

• 在施工開始前重新定位裝卸區 
• 與 SDOT 的中心團隊密切合作，協調該地區的其他公共和私人施工  

創建為本地區量身定制的標牌，提供尋路和施工信息 

• Serves as liaison between construction team and neighbors  
• Conducts construction surveys with neighbors to have direct points of contact and learn about needs  
• Attends construction meetings and coordinates with construction team to accommodate neighbors as much as possible  
• Communicates with neighbors through mailings, social media, weekly email updates, flyers, door-to-door, virtual meetings, phone calls, and web 

外展團隊： 

•  作為施工隊和鄰居之間的聯絡人 
• 與鄰居進行施工調查，以建立直接聯繫點並了解需求 
• 參加施工會議並與施工團隊協調以盡可能地滿足鄰居 
• 通過郵件、社交媒體、每週電子郵件更新、傳單、挨家挨戶、虛擬會議、電話和網絡與鄰居溝通 

支持本地企業 

在我們計劃的施工期間，企業將保持開放和可訪問。請繼續親自或通過中央地區協作和意向者以虛擬方式支持當地企業。中央地區協作正在與意向者合作，以支持中央社區的黑人雇主及小型企業。

Funding 

資金 

The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) has allocated $59.9 million in funding from the Small Starts Program to the Madison Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) - RapidRide G Line project for construction. This $59.9 million will cover about 45% of the total Madison BRT - RapidRide G Line project cost. The funding allocation builds on years of work with the Federal Transit Administration to meet the rigorous readiness requirements for the Small Starts Grant. The federal funding for this project is leveraged through Move Seattle, Sound Transit ST3, King County, and Washington State funds 

聯邦運輸管理局 (FTA) 已從小型啟動計劃中撥款 5,990 萬美元用於Madison巴士捷運 (BRT) - RapidRide G Line 項目的建設。這 5,990 萬美元將佔Madison BRT - RapidRide G Line 項目總成本的 45% 左右。資金分配建立在與聯邦運輸管理局多年合作的基礎上，以滿足小額起步補助金的嚴格準備要求。該項目的聯邦資金是通過 Move Seattle、Sound Transit ST3、金縣和華盛頓州基金獲得的
