For years, transit residents have put up ideas to improve the reliability and speed of the Link-Light Rail south of the Chinatown International District. The cumbersome, slow and often dangerous section over the Rainier Valley was consistently the network's Achilles' heel. This has led to groups like Seattle Subway to support the idea of ​​building a quick light bypass about the Duwamish Valley in the West, and even theirs who really indicate a variation of the idea by the Rainier Valley. In this video, the transit house deals with what a bypass could look like.
