- Q3714809 abstract "The Downtown Seattle Transit Tunnel (DSTT), also referred to as the Metro Bus Tunnel, is a 1.3-mile-long (2.1 km) pair of tunnels for public transit that run north–south under 3rd Avenue through Downtown Seattle, Washington from 9th Avenue and Pike Street to 5th Avenue South and South Jackson Street. The double-track tunnel and its stations, with the exception of Convention Place, constitute the northernmost section of the Central Link light rail line, continuing south through the Rainier Valley to Seattle–Tacoma International Airport as part of Sound Transit's Link Light Rail network. All five of its stations are also served by buses from King County Metro and Sound Transit Express that leave the tunnel north via Interstate 5, south via the SODO Busway, or east via Interstate 90. The DSTT is the busiest section of the Link Light Rail network, with an average of over 10,000 weekday boardings. It is owned by King County Metro and shared with Sound Transit, having signed a joint-operating agreement after ownership was transferred back to King County in 2002. The Downtown Seattle Transit Tunnel is one of two rail-bus tunnels in the United States, alongside the Mount Washington Transit Tunnel in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. However, the DSTT is the only rail-bus tunnel in the United States with stations, as the Mount Washington Transit Tunnel lacks stations.Though proposals for a rapid transit tunnel under 3rd Avenue date back to the 1910s and 1920s, planning for the modern bus and rail Metro Bus Tunnel only began in 1974. The King County Metro Council approved the bus tunnel proposal in November 1983, but construction did not begin until March 1987. The tunnel between Convention Place and Westlake stations was built using the cut-and-cover method, closing Pine Street for 19 months and disrupting nearby retail businesses. The segment from Westlake to the International District was bored with two tunnel-boring machines, heading north from Union Station and finishing within a month of each other. Tests of normal buses and the Breda dual-mode buses built specifically for tunnel routes began in March 1989, with tunnel construction declared complete in June 1990, at a cost of $455 million. Light rail tracks were installed in anticipation of future rapid transit service through the tunnel, later found to be poorly insulated and unusable for Link Light Rail. Soft openings of the five tunnel stations were held from August 1989 to September 1990, with regular bus service beginning on September 15, carrying 28,000 daily trips in its first year of operation.The tunnel was closed on September 24, 2005 for modification to accommodate both buses and Sound Transit's Central Link light rail trains on a shared alignment. Prior to closure, around two dozen bus routes ran through the tunnel. The buses were dual-powered, operating as trolleybuses in the tunnel using electricity from overhead wires and as diesel buses on city streets. It reopened on Monday, September 24, 2007. The two-year closure included retrofits for light rail and other operating system upgrades. A stub tunnel, branching from the main tunnel, was constructed under Pine Street between 7th and Boren Avenues to allow light rail trains to stop and reverse direction and for future extension of Central Link.Due to the conversion to light rail, dual-mode trolleybuses can no longer operate in the tunnel. Those buses have already been replaced by Metro's current new fleet of hybrid buses, which produce fewer emissions than standard diesel buses, and, unlike the trolleybuses, require no connection to overhead wires.Since the floor of the tunnel was lowered for the light rail, bus mirrors are now at head height, and there have been concerns that they may strike passengers waiting on the platform. To prevent this, the mirror on the platform side of the bus are equipped with flashing lights and the speed limit in stations has been lowered from 15 to 10 mph (24 to 16 km/h).".
