Reversing Harrell cuts, Parks is now installing the remaining Lake Washington Blvd safety compromise plan From Seattle Parks. Last summer, Mayor Bruce Harrell's office abruptly cancelled phase 3 of the Lake Washington Boulevard safety project, which included additional speed humps to calm traffic along the park boulevard as well as redesigns of several intersections to improve crosswalk safety for people accessing the lakefront. They even tried to hide the cuts, though that gambit did not work because safety advocates and Seattle Bike Blog were paying attention. Not long after, a hit-and-run driver struck someone biking home from a camping trip on a section where safety improvements had been canceled. https://www.seattlebikeblog.com/2026/05/14/reversing-harrell-cuts-parks-is-now-installing-the-remaining-lake-washington-blvd-safety-compromise-plan/
