Beginning Tuesday, November 12, Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) will start sidewalk improvements on the north side of S Jackson St, between 2nd Ave Ext S and 4th Ave S, the sidewalks and crosswalks at 2nd Ave Ext S and 4th Ave S. This will also affect access to the King County Metro bus island on 4th Ave S between S Jackson St and S Main St (bus stop ID 619).
The stairwell serving the north end of the King Street Station Sounder platform and S Jackson Street will be closed. All Sounder passengers must enter and exit via the Weller Street bridge or, if there is an elevator outage on the bridge, from the Amtrak depot.
For more information about the SDOT sidewalk project, contact SDOT by email at 684-Road@seattle.gov or by phone at (206) 684-7623.
Note that the work schedule could change. Passengers should subscribe to King Street Station or Sounder alerts for updated information about the stairwell closure. Visit the Service Alerts web page to sign up and find current information on service disruptions.
King County Metro bus passengers who ordinarily use the bus island on 4th Ave S, between S Jackson St and S Main St (bus stop ID 619), should refer to King County Metro (KCM) for service advisories with detour/alternate stop information. You can call KCM from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday at 206-553-3000.
