Table of Green Line Travel Times

This was my web site promoting the Seattle Monorail Project, but the project was cancelled in November 2005.
I am maintaining this site for historical reference.

Showing distances and times between stations and time stopped at each station (dwell time)

NOTE: There have been some changes to the route since this table was prepared, so the figures shown here will now be different, but not by much.

This table shows the following:

Feet from Southern Terminus: The distance in feet from the southern end of the Green Line at the Morgan Junction station. The distance is measured along the monorail route, and is approximate.

Feet Between Stations: Derived by subtracting the figures in the first column

Station Name: As assigned by The Seattle Monorail Project

Travel Time: The time it takes for the train to get from one station to the next. Northbound and southbound figures are often different due to a hill or other factors.

Dwell Time: The time in seconds that the train is supposed to wait at the station between arrival and departure.

NOTES:

¹ The plans have changed. Now this station is planned for Elliott and Mercer instead of Elliott and Republican. I do not have figures for the new location.

² These travel times can change according to the final decision on where the line will be routed through or near Seattle Center.

Source of these statistics is The Seattle Monorail Project, except for the addition of the Feet Between Stations column. Those distances were derived by subtracting station locations in feet in first column.
