As a bypass of downtown Seattle this project is fine. For commuters trying to get into downtown it is going to make for a longer commute.
Why?
Because a lot of traffic gets into downtown via the SR 99 viaduct using the Seneca Street and Western Ave exits.
Think traffic is bad now? It’s only going to get worse.
