As reported here previously, SDOT is planning “>a “rechannelization” for SW Alaska from The Triangle to The Junction – adding a bike lane and transit lane, and reducing the lanes used by other vehicles as well as removing some street parking. Most recently, we mentioned a public-comment period is under way. SDOT has told WSB they are NOT going to have a public meeting solely devoted to this proposal as they’ve done with two previous “rechannelization” plans (Fauntleroy Way and Admiral Way). The city feels it does not need a public meeting because it already has done “extensive outreach,” according to SDOT’s Jonathan Dong – so if you have something to say, e-mail him before the weekend’s out (July 31 is the deadline, jonathan.dong@seattle.gov). SDOT reps are also expected to be available to talk about it at tonight’s West Seattle Candidates’ Forum at South Seattle Community College‘s Brockey Center (southeast side of campus, 6000 16th SW), with community tabling and ice cream at 6:30 pm, candidates and issues at 7:30 pm.
