"It is as much an economic development tool as it is a transit investment"

One year after the start of passenger service, the Seattle Streetcar has served more than 500,000 riders, far exceeding original estimates. In celebration of the one-year anniversary and to thank residents who have made the line a success, streetcar rides will be free December 12 through December 26, 2008.

“A half million riders on just the first line reflects the tremendous potential of streetcars,” said Mayor Nickels. “A Seattle streetcar network will be an important part of our future, offering a climate-friendly transportation choice that helps attract employers and encourage more job creation.”

En de kosten van deze 2.6 mijl lange lijn staan heel helder op de site .
