Scope Of Work
The new Union Street Pedestrian Bridge in downtown Seattle will provide an accessible connection to the waterfront with a wider walkway, stairway and an elevator. Pedestrian lighting will be integrated in the railings of the bridge and stairs, underneath the bridge deck and within the elevator. The Union Street bridge will connect Western Avenue and Alaskan Way, part of the many key east-west streets that are to be improved upon by the City of Seattle. The project will also feature artwork by Seattle artist Norie Sato, bringing attention to the environment found near the waterfront.
