Last year, Fix the L8 proved that Route 8 is not only slower than walking, but also slower than hopscotching, cha-cha-sliding, conga lining, and so much more. Less two weeks after taking office, Mayor Wilson, who joined us at last year’s race, signed her first executive order. It directed the Seattle Department of Transportation to install bus-only lanes on Denny Way to improve Route 8’s speed and reliability, finally Fixing the L8 after decades of inaction from the city. Join us as we head back out to celebrate the new bus lanes by dancing our way down Denny Way again to prove that Route 8 is finally faster than walking. However, with the new PEDs (Performance Enhancing Dedicatedbuslanes) that Mayor Wilson added, we’ll also need some track stars to see if anyone can actually still beat the bus. The race will be held on Tuesday, September 8th at 5 PM at Denny / Dexter, starting with brief remarks from Mayor Wilson, a Route 8 bus driver, and Fix the L8 leads. We will then race the bus to Denny / Stewart before heading to Pine Box for a happy hour after the race. submitted by /u/WoKao353 |
