The Alaskan Way Viaduct Replacement Program, led by the Washington State Department of Transportation, King County, the City of Seattle, and the Port of Seattle, is a comprehensive initiative aimed at replacing the aging and earthquake-vulnerable Alaskan Way Viaduct in Seattle. With a total of 30 projects and a budget of $3.35 billion, the program focuses on enhancing safety and mobility along Seattle's central waterfront through the construction of new surface streets, tunnels, and highway segments.
From the demolition of the viaduct to the construction of new infrastructure such as the SR 99 Tunnel and South Access - Surface Street Connections, the Alaskan Way Viaduct Replacement Program has been a collaborative effort involving various stakeholders and funding sources. With a timeline spanning from 2007 to 2023, the program represents a significant investment in improving transportation infrastructure and public safety in the Seattle area.
