How will the traffic lanes on I-90 be configured after LRT is in the center roadway?
Light rail across I-90 will be located in the center roadway, which is currently operated as peak direction HOV lanes. Sound Transit and WSDOT are beginning to implement the I-90 Two-Way Transit and HOV Operations Project, which will ultimately add HOV lanes to the outer roadways while maintaining three eastbound and three general purpose westbound lanes. Peak-direction HOV or bus only lanes will remain in the center lanes until the light rail line is built in the center roadway.
