Water main work wraps up on RapidRide J Line project

Building infrastructure is vital in the creation of the RapidRide system that will stretch from downtown Seattle to the University District.

The RapidRide J line is a collaborative effort between Metro and the Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT). But before roads could be built, it was time to upgrade the century-old system of pipes that run under the roads.

SDOT and Seattle Public Utilities have completed the installation of over 9,000 feet of upgraded water main. The equivalent of 25 football fields of pipes is now underground, and SDOT is ready to start the roadwork that will pave the way for frequent, reliable bus service when the new RapidRide J Line launches in 2027.
