Comments

General comments

• Images are fine, all licensed and captioned appropriately.
• Article is stable, no ongoing edit-wars, etc.
• No copyvio problems found.

Lede

• This could be tightened up: "The Downtown Seattle Transit Tunnel is one of two rail-bus tunnels in the United States, alongside the Mount Washington Transit Tunnel in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. However, the DSTT is the only rail-bus tunnel in the United States with stations, as the Mount Washington Transit Tunnel lacks stations." ---> "The Downtown Seattle Transit Tunnel is one of two rail-bus tunnels in the United States, alongside the Mount Washington Transit Tunnel in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and is the only one in the United States with stations."

Planning, funding and design

• In the last sentence, I'd delete the word "controversial". Readers will already understand the dispute over the buses, having read this far into the article.

This is an excellent article and, these minor tweaks aside, I look forward to promoting it. --Coemgenus (talk) 12:08, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
