Jason Li @jasonli468.bsky.social · 25/09/2026He also tried to argue that should just fix fare evasion instead of passing the STM renewal, saying that KCM loses $20M~$30M a year from it. That's paltry compared to the $138M annual revenue the expanded STM would bring, even when ignoring any costs that would come with fare enforcement. 161

Reposted by Jason LiMayor Katie B. Wilson @mayor.seattle.gov · 09/09/2026Last night we celebrated the opening of our new dedicated bus lane for the 8 bus on Denny by doing the obvious thing: racing it again. Last summer, Seattleites raced the bus on foot and beat it. This time around, with the lane up and running, it wasn’t even close. 016219
Jason Li @jasonli468.bsky.social · 09/09/2026The most impressive impact of bus lanes to me is that the difference between the fastest and slowest bus along Denny went from 10 minutes to less than one minute. You can plan around a slow bus but you can't really plan around an unpredictable one. Luckily Route 8 is neither of those things now. 0192
Reposted by Jason LiRyan Packer @typewriteralley.bsky.social · 06/09/2026We have a lot of things in Seattle that have been in planning for two decades. The Denny bus lanes were not one of them. Before January they were deemed impossible, and were planned and executed in eight months. 14787112
Jason Li @jasonli468.bsky.social · 05/09/2026My uninformed theoretical analysis of this: Anodes should gently disperse electricity along its length, but the lake bed is a bad conductor. Anodes laying against it then causes voltage to build up, zapping fish in the area. ST raised the rods slightly off the lake bed already which should fix it 150
