Linked at last? A new proposal for Burke-Gilman

The missing link of the Burke-Gilman Trail has long been the White Whale for Seattle’s cycling community. One potential solution, putting in a trail on Shilshole Ave NW, has been subject to almost three decades of political and legal gridlock.

Now, 6th District Councilmember Dan Strauss thinks he’s finally found a way.

KUOW reporter Casey Martin is here to talk us through Strauss’s proposed plan.
