N 130th St: Bitter Lake to Haller Lake Mobility Improvements
Forman Consulting Services serves as the Deputy Project Manager for the final design of the N 130th St West Project. This project will make safety and mobility improvements on N 130th St between Palatine Ave N and I-5 to connect people to Sound Transit's future Pinehurst Station (formerly the NE 130th St Infill Station) and help them get around the neighborhood.
Sound Transit anticipates that 90% of light rail riders will reach the Pinehurst Station by walking, rolling, biking, or taking transit, and these improvements will create a better environment for all travelers. The project includes a new street design with protected bike lanes, intersection upgrades, sidewalk repairs, new accessible curb ramps, and new street trees.
It also supports new bus service in the area with upgraded and relocated bus stops, a full street reconstruction for heavier bus and freight vehicles, and additional bus-priority features.
