The Alaskan Way Viaduct replacement tunnel, also known
as the SR 99 Tunnel, is a bored highway tunnel in Seattle. The 2-mile double-decker
tunnel carries a section of State Route 99 under downtown Seattle.
Construction began in July 2013 using “Bertha”, at
the time the world’s largest-diameter tunnel boring machine. Tunnel
boring was completed in April 2017, and the tunnel opened to traffic on February
4, 2019.
