TOMORROW: Walking Tour Gives Exclusive First Look at E Marginal Way S Transformation 

*Seattle* – Be among the first to experience innovative improvements transforming one of Seattle’s most crucial corridors for freight, cars, bikes, and pedestrians.

A key part of the East Marginal Way S Corridor Improvement Project is on track to finish months ahead of schedule. To celebrate, the City of Seattle and its partners invite you on a special walking tour for an exclusive preview. City leaders, along with the project team, will showcase key features and share valuable insights into the project’s impact. 

E Marginal Way S is a vital freight corridor—linking the Port of Seattle, rail yards, and industrial businesses, and serving as a key connector between local Manufacturing and Industrial Centers (MICs). It’s also an important flat route for people biking between the West Seattle Bridge Trail, Downtown, and the SODO neighborhood. 

The improvements, funded in part by the voter-approved Levy to Move Seattle, are part of the North Segment of the East Marginal Way S Corridor Improvement project and the first to be delivered. The upgrades support safe and efficient travel for freight and people and strengthen the long-term economic resilience of the city’s maritime and industrial sectors. By improving freight mobility and creating safer connections for people walking and biking, the project supports both the movement of goods and the well-being of the communities that rely on this corridor every day.
