TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION OCTOBER 24, 2018

Transportation Master Plan (TMP)

Four Principles: 1. Safely move people – Support a transportation system and related government and private actions that promote all viable forms of transportation. 2. Link to land use – Ensure consistency between land use, transportation planning and implementation. 3. Be sustainable – Support a transportation system that can be sustained over the next 50 years. 4. Be an active partner – Actively build and maintain partnerships locally, regionally and nationally, to further our transportation goals.

TMP and Transit

Fast – making long trips competitive and cost effective with driving. Frequent – frequencies of 15 minutes or less with service hours extending from early morning to late night. Reliable – trip times are consistent from day-to-day and riders trust they’ll arrive on time. Accessible – facilities and vehicles are designed for all users. Comfortable – all elements of the system are sized to meet demand and offer amenities that make trips pleasant. Complete – popular destinations are served and transfers between routes are easy and clear.

TMP and Network

Policy T-7.2 Establish commitments from transit providers to provide quality transit service in exchange for land use and transportation commitments that support transit. Partner with King County Metro to meet mutual interests.
