The City of Bellevue and Sound Transit are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, as the Sound Transit Board of Directors made the decision yesterday in favor of a tunnel for light rail in Downtown Bellevue. The City of Bellevue Council-members have long supported the tunnel option because it minimizes street congestion and maximizes routing efficiency. This decision is a sign of progress and hopefully a foreshadowing of cooperation between the City and Sound Transit on other outstanding items, like the alignment of certain routes.
