The RapidRide J Line project will bring significant improvements to the University District, Eastlake, South Lake Union, and Belltown. These enhancements will make it easier to commute, attend classes at the University of Washington, access medical care, or visit local businesses by creating a more efficient and convenient travel experience across these key areas of the city.  

Our focus is on modernizing and maintaining reliable transit connections for Seattle’s growing communities. Upgrades will include improvements to roads, sidewalks, curb ramps, lighting, drainage, and traffic signals. Additionally, we will install protected bike lanes and replace the water main on Eastlake Ave E. These enhancements are essential for supporting local businesses, improving access to housing, and fostering vibrant, connected communities.

* Eastlake Ave E Water Shutoffs

University District Water Shutoffs
The properties highlighted in red will experience the water shutoff on Friday, March 21.

"The properties highlighted in red will experience the water shutoff on Friday, March 21. " 

Residents and business owners will have a new fully- operational water main by the end of next week on NE 43rd St, between Roosevelt Way NE and 12th Ave NE! The final step is to connect the service, requiring Seattle Public Utilities (SPU) to temporarily turn off the water supply to several nearby properties on Friday, March 21. The water shutoff will begin around 9 AM, and we expect it to wrap up by 4 PM, meaning water may be off for up to 8 hours. We've included a map above to show which properties will be affected in red. After finishing the water main work, we plan to repave NE 43rd St with concrete and upgrade the sidewalks. Thank you for your understanding and patience as we make these improvements!

Water Main Work Starting in Eastlake
Water main trench and pipes along NE 43rd St

"Water main trench and pipes along NE 43rd St."

As our crews complete the water main for the University District and finish the stormwater line construction, we’ll soon be heading to the northern part of Eastlake Ave E, between Fuhrman Ave E and E Allison St. Our goal is to upgrade your water main from the 100-year-old system to a new, more earthquake-resistant service.  

We will complete the most impactful work prior to 10 PM. There will be vehicles onsite throughout this process, so you can expect some noise as we complete this work.

There will also be several temporary water shutoffs as we test valves and switch between services, but we’ll do our best to keep interruptions to a minimum.  

Eastlake Ave E Water Shutoffs
The properties highlighted in red will experience the water shutoff on Sunday, March 16.

"The properties highlighted in red will experience a short-term water shutoff on Sunday, March 16, and a longer shutoff on March 23."

Water main work along Eastlake Ave E will require two temporary water service disruptions in the coming weeks. The first water outage will take place on the evening of Sunday, March 16. SPU crews will be working on the water main between Fuhrman Ave E and E Allison St, so we’ll need to turn off the water for nearby buildings starting at 11 PM and expect to have the water back up by 4 AM, March 17. We’ve highlighted the affected areas in red on the map above. This shutoff will allow SPU crews to test the water main valves and ensure that we can continue with work.

The second scheduled water outage will be on Sunday, March 23, from 8:30 PM until Monday morning at 6 AM. During this time, we'll be switching the water supply from the old water main to a temporary water main, which will keep the water flowing for residents and businesses during construction.

We understand that water outages can be inconvenient, so we try to schedule these outages at the best times for our community. SPU is working closely with building managers and businesses to minimize the impact on everyone.

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to us by calling our project hotline at (206) 257-2202 or emailing RapidRide@seattle.gov. We’re here to help!  

"*If you operate an apartment, hotel, or business:* "

When managing a project of this size, we collaborate with SPU to inform properties affected by major water shutoffs. These notifications are sent before the work and include specific time frames. However, we may need to contact you immediately for smaller shutoffs, connections, or emergencies. Please email RapidRide@seattle.gov with the best contact person for your property, along with their contact information. This way, we can ensure you’re informed promptly. Thank you for your understanding and support as we work together to improve our community!

Tramonti Condos and Ruby Condos Water Shutoffs

SPU crews will temporarily shut off water services for the Tramonti Condos (2920 Eastlake Ave E) and the Ruby Condos (2960 Eastlake Ave E) on Tuesday, March 18, from as early as 6 AM to as late as 10 AM. This interruption is part of our ongoing construction to upgrade the water main along Eastlake Ave. Residents and businesses within the buildings can expect a water outage lasting approximately two to three hours to complete this work. 

Southbound Harvard Ave E Lane Closure

"A map of the southbound lane closure on Harvard Ave E between Eastlake Ave E and E Allison St."

As part of the water main construction on Eastlake Ave E, crews will need to close the southbound lane of Harvard Ave E between Franklin Ave E and Eastlake Ave E as soon as March 29. The northbound lane of Harvard Ave E will remain open. Local access to driveways and residential buildings will still be available during this time.   

We will keep one lane of Eastlake Ave E open in both directions near the intersection of Harvard Ave E to safely guide vehicles around the construction. This closure will help our team access the utilities beneath the road and will be in place through April.  

During the southbound Harvard Ave E closure, we will reopen E Allison St in both eastbound and westbound directions to accommodate the detour. Westbound traffic on E Allison St will be allowed to turn right onto northbound Eastlake Ave E. Additionally, northbound traffic on Harvard Ave E will be permitted to turn left onto E Allison St. For more information, please refer to the map above. 

Mosaic Tile Removal

"A mosaic tile at the intersection of Eastlake Ave E and E Lynn St."

Our project team is committed to preserving the existing art in the Eastlake neighborhood. We will carefully remove and store the mosaic tiles before we start construction in certain areas along Eastlake Ave E. Once we complete sections of the new sidewalks and curb ramps, we will reinstall these tiles.

Tile removal will take place during daytime hours on Friday, March 14, and Saturday, March 15. We want you to know that there may be some typical construction noise and dust during this time. However, it is expected to take just a few hours. After carefully removing the tiles, we’ll place a temporary patch to keep things safe and smooth­ until the sidewalks are fully restored later in the project.

Nightwork at 700 Fairview Ave N

Beginning Friday, March 14, crews will be *working overnight* at 700 Fairview Ave N, between Valley St and Mercer St. We will work at night and on the weekend to reduce the impact to traffic during the day.

Our crews will upgrade the stormwater system by installing new connections and structures. We will need to take road lanes to do this work. We expect this construction to take a week to complete.

All nighttime work will comply with the City of Seattle’s noise variance requirements. For more information on the City’s noise code, please visit their website [ https://www.seattle.gov/sdci/codes/codes-we-enforce-(a-z)/noise-code?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery ].
