华盛顿州金县西雅图市消息：西雅图40路公交走廊升级工程已于10月29日完工，市县官员当天共同庆祝项目完成，相关消息于10月30日公布。
这项名为40路公交优先多模式走廊的工程新增3英里公交优先道，并升级约6000英尺人行道，服务范围包括巴拉德、弗里蒙特和西湖等社区。工程由选民批准的西雅图公交措施出资，旨在减少公交延误、提高准点率并改善步行安全，由西雅图交通局与金县公交公司共同推进。

Seattle Completes Route 40 Corridor Upgrades: 3 Miles of Bus-Priority Lanes Serve Ballard to Westlake
Seattle's Route 40 bus corridor upgrade was completed on October 29, with city and county officials celebrating the milestone; the news was released on October 30. The Transit-Plus Multimodal Corridor project adds 3 miles of bus-priority lanes and upgrades about 6,000 feet of sidewalks, serving Ballard, Fremont and Westlake.
Funded by the voter-approved Seattle Transit Measure, the project was delivered by the Seattle Department of Transportation with King County Metro to cut bus delays, improve on-time performance and make walking safer. In January 2026, King County Metro had already deployed a zero-emission bus fleet on the route; the October 29 completion brings the corridor's hardware upgrades fully into place.
