Many cities have subways, but Seattle is the only one I've experienced with bus tunnels under the city streets rather than trains. The Metro Bus Tunnel system has five stations and was completed in 1990 for use by gas and electric powered buses. It was renovated fifteen years later to accommodate joint use of buses and the new Link Light Rail system. It was re-dubbed the Seattle Transit Tunnel when it reopened two years ago. If you'd like to go on a ride through the tunnel from the comfort of your own screen, click this video!
