Save Public Transit 

We need a city where it is convenient and efficient, to get around by bus. We need to increase investment in public transit, not cut funding.  More and better public transit will reduce traffic congestion, improve safety on our streets, reduce air pollution and help us meet our climate goals. 

1) Email your Seattle City Council Member at Council.Seattle.gov in May-June 2024 to assure adequate funding for public transit in the Transportation Levy.

Sample Comments:

• Introduce yourself: Your name, where you live, how you get around or other relevant information.

• I am a voter and I would vote for a $1.7 billion levy that invests more in sidewalks and safety.

• Personal story about why you care: How would new sidewalks, bike lanes, or faster buses make a difference in your life?

• Thank you for supporting a transportation levy that will get us to our safety, equity, and climate goals.

2) Complete THIS FORM to save King County Metro Bus Route #20.  King County Metro is threatening to cut Bus Route #20 in Autumn 2024.  Bus #20 serves schools (students, staff), seniors, businesses and the disabled in local neighborhoods between Lake City and University of Washington (Victory Heights, Pinehurst, Northgate, Licton Springs, Green Lake, East Wallingford, University District).  Bus #20 provides ready access from local neighborhoods to Light Rail Stations at Northgate & University District.
