Seattle tunnel would be the world's widest

By MARGIE SLOVAN
Journal Staff Reporter

The state House of Representatives has approved replacing the Alaskan Way Viaduct with a bored tunnel so Senate Bill 5768 is now back in the Senate, which will have to decide whether it accepts amendments to the bill that were added by the House.

Tunneling conference
Early next month, tunneling experts from around the world will speak at a conference here hosted by the Society for Mining, Metallurgy and Exploration.

The conference will be held May 4 at the Seattle Sheraton, 1400 Sixth Ave. For more information, visit http://www.smenet.org.
