The South 2nd Street Conversion Project will be improving multimodal mobility in around the downtown core by converting an existing 4–lane one-way roadway to a roadway
with one through-lane in each direction between Main Ave South and Rainier Ave South. This project also includes pedestrian and bicycle facilities, traffic operations
improvements, and transit upgrades that will provide better traffic operation and circulation for all modes of transportation. The improvements include a westbound bypass
transit lane from just west of Logan Ave S to just east of Lake Avenue. Transit facility upgrades include new RapidRide stops and a transit queue jump at the new traffic signal at
the Shattuck intersection.
This project is one of the strategies identified in the City Center Community Plan as well as the Downtown Civic Core Action Plan. The project enhances downtown Renton as a
destination area, while improving circulation and enhancing pedestrian safety and environment. The intersection of S 2nd St and Burnett is key connection to The Renton
Connector Project (TIP No. 22)
Since grant funding for design is for FY 2021, we hope to request advance construction funds to get started on design in order to apply for more grant opportunities.
The conversion of South 2nd Street to two-way operations increases transit mobility in
addition to improving traffic circulation and enhancing the safety of people walking and
biking. These infrastructure improvements helps connect multiple regional trails that
converge in the Downtown Business District of the City of Renton.
