If you’ve ever been curious about this 1950’s highway marvel, now is your chance to get an up-close, car-free view. On the morning of Saturday, October 16, Alaskan Way Viaduct experts will lead a guided public walking tour of the viaduct’s south end. You’ll learn about active construction to replace the southern mile of the viaduct, and the proposed bored tunnel alternative for replacing the viaduct along the central waterfront, the part with the view.

If you would like to participate in the tour, send an e-mail or call 1-888-AWV-LINE (298-5463) and leave a message with your contact information. We will send you a confirmation e-mail with your tour time and other details. No children under the age of 16 or pets are allowed on the tours for safety reasons.
