The Puget Sound Regional Council today released a new and very timely survey. With the state Senate poised to vote on the state’s first comprehensive transportation package in a decade, the survey confirms the importance voters place on a functioning, safe, transportation system.
The key results:
Seventy-nine percent say traffic congestion on roads they use is a serious or critical problem.
Sixty percent say a lack of transportation alternatives is a serious or critical problem.
Fifty-one percent say the region is losing ground when it comes to transportation.
Ninety-five percent say it’s important for the State Legislature and the Governor to do something to address transportation this year.
