@@DefineDeftutomated light metro w high frequency is better for Seattle, be like Lille or Rennes or like VanBC. We vote these projects in, and the results get watered down by WSDoT highway bias and ST putting parking instead of mixed use development *right next to* stations or construction has to be redone bc projects have a game of telephone (eg, the east link rails had to redo cross ties east out of Mercer Island).
13:48 that pause annoys me. All trains do it, and it's just for some driveways that aren't much trafficked. 14:34 that pause annoys me too, because there isn't much cross traffic there either. I think these are stops required of trains but not required of parallel road traffic :(
Yeah not sure why they always do that. Maybe because it's toward one end of the street running portion it takes a while for the signal priority to register that the train is there? Not sure though. Definitely something ST and SDOT should look into fixing.
They don't do the driveway stop now. New problem: slow running through SoDo (more timidness with level crossings), and southbound trains usually crawl from pioneer square into ID-Chinatown
why do I like watching this video? Great job with the video. Next up, Lynnwood.
Fall of 2024 Lynnwood extension opens
Thank you for making this video! Exactly what I've been searching for
Thank you for the great video! I took a trip and never left the farm, I feel that I went through a worm hole.
As a New Yorker, the 1 bullet on the Link system being green and not red really caught me offguard

2 link light rail line opening in 2024😊
They NEED to transform these lines into fully automated heavy rail.
Tell that to the voters

Heavy rail is a no but automation would be possible with grade separation in the Rainier Valley
No need to build a heavy rail.

That area really needs to be grade separated than they can run even more frequent trains every 5 minutes
Similar to what we have here in phx
I doubt it's that similar Link is one of the highest ridership per mile light rail systems in the world
