RapidRide G Line – Madison St
Madison St – will move more people with frequent and reliable public transit
Last updated: November 8, 2024
What's Happening Now?
Wrap-up updates:
Construction on the RapidRide G Line - Madison St project is nearly complete. We'll continue working on the “finishing touches,” which usually don’t cause big inconveniences for people walking, rolling, biking, taking the bus, or driving.
Landscaping: Our team will continue working on landscaping throughout the fall. Most of the trees have already been planted, resulting in a total of 108 new trees in the project area, along with landscaping improvements on Madison St over I-5. The planters on I-5 will include a mix of shrubs, grasses, and plants that come back every year, such as Glacier Blue spurge, Seascape mat rush, and Autumn Fire stonecrop. Compact trees like the dwarf strawberry tree will also be planted to enhance the area.
Signal Timing: SDOT monitors and adjusts signal timing for the RapidRide G Line to improve traffic flow and reduce bus delays. During the first weeks of operation, we have closely monitored performance and made adjustments at key intersections, including Madison St and 6th Ave, Madison St and Boren Ave, E Madison St and 12th Ave, E Madison St and 15th Ave, E Madison St and 23rd Ave, and E Madison St and MLK Jr Way E. We’ve also implemented new signal timing along the corridor from 8th to 22nd avenues.
10th Ave tunnel: Starting this week (November 4th), we will temporarily close the eastbound lane and south sidewalk on Madison Street near 10th Avenue. During earlier work to install a new foundation for a trolley bus power pole at this intersection, crews found an old, abandoned tunnel beneath Madison Street. To ensure safety and stability, crews will fill in the tunnel and restore the area, including the sidewalk and landscaping. Pedestrian detours will be in place, and westbound vehicle traffic will remain open. Work at this intersection is expected to take one to two weeks.
New Art Coming Soon: A public art installation is underway at the intersection of Madison St, 14th Ave, and Pike St. A sculpture by local artist Ben Zamora is in progress. This vibrant piece consists of multiple-colored frames that intend to echo the surrounding architecture and reflect the diversity of the nearby communities. The artwork installation is expected to be completed by the end of this week, with the surrounding plaza scheduled for completion by the end of this year.
The photo above shows the vibrant new public art installation featuring orange and blue frames at the intersection of Madison St, 14th Ave, and Pike St.
We’ll continue to keep you informed and coordinate the finishing touches as needed.
Project Overview
The RapidRide G Line – Madison St Project is one of SDOT’s largest and most complex capital projects to date. We celebrated the ribbon-cutting ceremony in August 2024, marking substantial completion. This project transformed Madison St to shift First Hill and Capitol Hill’s main street from moving as many cars as possible to moving as many people as possible.
In addition to 1.4 miles of red bus lanes for the new G Line, SDOT’s project fixed sidewalks, added new walk and bike signals, rebuilt utilities, and created a street design to keep traffic at slower, safer speeds next to schools, small businesses, libraries, and hospitals.
The planning for this project started in 2012 as part of the Seattle Transit Master Plan. Madison St from downtown Seattle to Madison Valley was identified as a key transit hub that needed more frequent and reliable bus service.
Project Highlights
- We built/replaced 3.8 miles of sidewalks
- We completed 9.1 lane-miles of concrete roadway and 2.3 lane-miles of new asphalt overlay.
- We added 1.4 miles of dedicated transit lanes
- We built 21 new RapidRide stops; 10 paired stops in each direction and one on First Avenue
- We built 4 new center-running stations between 7th and 13th Avenues
- We installed 5 new traffic signals and upgraded 36 existing signals
- We planted 108 new trees throughout the project area (some final tree planting will be done this fall)

Project Benefits
- Community Benefit: The improved corridor connects communities along Madison St. making it easier for people to get to medical appointments, work, school, grocery stores, or visit a family member or friend.
- Comfort and Accessibility: New sidewalks, curb ramps, crosswalks, street lights, and curb bulbs make walking convenient and comfortable so people can easily get to the bus stop.
- Bus Improvements: 1.4 miles of dedicated bus lanes, designed to cut down travel time and improve reliability by minimizing traffic congestion and raised center stations speed up boarding, and reduce conflicts with other vehicles.
- Sustainability at Heart: By choosing public transportation, riders contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, fostering a more sustainable city for future generations.
- Maintain & Modernize our Infrastructure: This isn’t just a transit project. We also replaced a 120-year-old water main, improved the drainage and wastewater system on Madison, and improved Seattle City Lights’s power distribution system.
A Collaborative Effort
This project was made possible thanks to the collaboration between the Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) and King County Metro, in partnership with federal funding from the Federal Transit Administration, President Biden’s American Rescue Plan, Sound Transit, and support from Seattle City Light and Seattle Public Utilities.
RapidRide G Line
King County Metro’s new RapidRide G Line service begins on September 14, connecting Downtown Seattle with the Central District and Madison Valley. Riders will experience frequent, reliable bus service with buses arriving every six minutes most of the day. The new Madison St is tailored to keep buses moving and help people walk, roll, and bike to and from new well-lit stations.
Visit King County Metro’s RapidRide webpage to learn more about the benefits of RapidRide and other RapidRide routes.
Project Area
The project went through a rigorous process to develop the design with community input and secure federal funding to cover almost half of the project cost. The project is designed to meet the following goals:
Transit reliability
- Buses will come every 6 minutes most of 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
- All-door boarding and doors on both sides, so people can board efficiently from new center-running stations (between 9th Ave and 13th Ave)
- ORCA readers at the stations to pay before boarding
- Real-time bus arrival information at stations
Accessibility
- Station platforms level with bus so no stairs to climb
- New curb bulbs, crosswalks, sidewalks, curb ramps, and bike lanes in sections
Equity
- Serves historically underserved neighborhoods with an affordable and reliable transportation option
- Improved reliability and accessibility makes riding the bus a better transportation option for people who rely on taking the bus now and in the future
Upgrades and vibrancy
- Updated utilities and street paving
- New art and landscaping
Street and lane layout
- We changed the lane layout, including widening Madison by 1 to 2 feet in several locations
- The project included repaving with 9.1 lane-miles of concrete roadway and 2.3 lane-miles of new asphalt overlay
- We installed 5 new traffic signals (8th Ave and Spring St, 10th Ave and Madison St, 18th Ave and Madison St, 19th Ave and Union St, Harrison St and MLK) and upgraded 36 existing signals
- We added 1.4 miles of dedicated transit lanes
Bus infrastructure
- We built a bus layover facility, where King County Metro bus operators of the RapidRide G Line can park buses and take their mandated rest breaks.
- We built 21 new RapidRide stops; 10 paired stops in each direction and one on First Avenue
- We upgraded 2 existing bus stops
- We built 4 new center-running stations between 7th and 13th Avenues
- Many of the new bus stops feature real-time information systems (arrival estimates), off-board payment readers, new handrails, bumpers, glass and paint, trash cans
- We installed new poles and relocated some overhead trolley wires to match the new street layout
Utilities
- We upgraded the streetlight network in the First Hill neighborhood, and made additional improvements to streetlights, and the power distribution system managed by Seattle City Lights throughout the project area
- Installed detention tanks to manage stormwater runoff (Madison St between 12th and 13th Avenues, 10th between Madison and Seneca streets, and E Pine St between 15th and 16th Avenues)
- We replaced a 120-yeard old water main east of Broadway, improved drainage and wastewater system on Madison St
Walking, biking, and community infrastructure
- 3.8 miles of sidewalks were either newly built or replaced
- We built curb bulbs to shorten pedestrian crossings along side streets (Madison St at the intersections of Minor Ave, 10th Ave, 12th Ave, Union St, Pike St, 15th Ave, 18th Ave, 19th Ave, Denny St, John St, and 27th Ave; Spring St at the intersections of 7th, 8th, and 9th Avenues)
- We built new and upgraded many existing curb ramps
- We planted 108 new trees throughout the project area, and added significant landscaping enhancements on Madison St over I-5
- This project included a public art installation at Madison St, where 14th Ave, and Pike St converge
- We added bike connections
The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) has allocated $80.5 million in federal funding to the Madison Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) - RapidRide G Line project*. This funding covers about 60% of the total project costs. Other funding sources for the project include the Move Seattle Levy, Sound Transit ST3, King County, and Washington State funds.
*Federal funding sources include: $59.9 million from the Small Starts Program; $9.6 million from Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) grants; and $10.9 million from the 2021 American Recovery Plan Act
We built the RapidRide G Line – Madison St project to connect downtown Seattle with First Hill, Capitol Hill, the Central Area, and Madison Valley. The project features 1.4 miles of bus-only lanes and new 60-foot buses with five doors, allowing passengers to board from the curb or center island stations. We also replaced a 120-year-old water main, upgraded drainage and wastewater systems, improved streetlights, and updated Seattle City Light’s power grid.
Why was the RapidRide G Line project designed?
We designed the RapidRide G Line – Madison St project to make transit more reliable and accessible in Seattle's busiest neighborhoods. With buses running every 6 minutes most of the day, and dedicated lanes to cut down travel time, our goal is to provide a dependable and efficient way to get around.
When did the planning and construction phases of the RapidRide G Line project begin and end?
Planning began in 2012 as part of the Seattle Transit Master Plan. Construction started in late 2021 and was mostly completed by summer 2024.
Who led the RapidRide G Line project construction and what partners were involved?
The Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) led the project in partnership with King County Metro, which managed the procurement of new buses and operates the new RapidRide G Line. Community input, federal funding from the Federal Transit Administration, support from President Biden's American Rescue Plan, and funding from Sound Transit, along with additional support and partnership from Seattle City Light and Seattle Public Utilities were crucial in making this project a reality.
Project Schedule, Progress, and Milestones
The project is 99% complete as of Q3 2024. Construction started in late 2021 and reached major completion by summer 2024. The RapidRide G Line service is scheduled to begin on September 14, 2024.
