What is the status of crucial projects such as the Alaskan Way viaduct, the 520 Bridge, and our Ferry system? Our region’s transportation issues continue to sow consternation among our leaders and the public. From the must-solve big three to more "optional" projects like light rail and the now-defunct Monorail, transportation will certainly feature prominently in the campaign for governor.
CityClub is bringing together elected and community transportation leaders for an update on how our most pressing challenges are being handled. Have government agencies come up with credible plans? Has funding been found, or where can it come from? Or do we need to reorganize our governance structure before our region can even begin to solve our transportation woes? To explore these questions and more, please join us!
