Seattle’s Red Lane Bet for Buses | Seattle News

Published 4 days, 8 hours ago
Description

Seattle just painted a whole mile of Denny Way red — and it’s now a bus-only lane from Seattle Center to I-5, designed to speed up Route 8 and lure drivers off the road. The city’s bold move reroutes cars to Howell Street, tweaks traffic lights, and bets on more people hopping on buses — all funded by a voter-approved measure. While officials monitor travel times and hope for a smoother transit future, drivers face new detours and delays. Success hinges on whether enough folks ditch their cars for buses — and whether this red lane becomes the transit game-changer Seattle needs.
