Metro and SDOT hosting online open house on Route 40 refined design proposals
King County Metro and the Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) are looking for your input on the next steps for improving transit service on the Route 40 corridor.
We invite you to give us feedback during the Route 40 online open house. This is your opportunity to view our refined designs and provide your feedback to make the Route 40 corridor better for everybody.
The online survey will be available through Monday, June 19. After the survey closes, we will share your feedback with the design team to prepare for advanced design.
Northgate park and ride survey, we want to hear from you!
Results will help Metro understand travel patterns, how to manage demand for parking, and how upcoming Link expansion could affect park and ride use.
We are interested in how often, why, and when you use a park and ride at the Northgate Transit Center. The survey is open until Sunday, June 4, 2023.
Your personal details and responses will remain confidential and will not be used for any other purpose.
Thank you for completing our survey.

Celebrating AANHP Heritage Month
 In celebration of American Asian Native Hawaiian Pasifika (AANHP) Heritage month, I would like to take a moment to acknowledge and honor the history, culture and contributions of our AANHP community.
Recognizing heritage months provides an opportunity for us to celebrate the diverse communities that make up our region and to better understand how systemic racism has impacted these communities, both past and present, and the work we can do together to help dismantle it.
Today, the AANHP communities still face overt racism and discrimination.
Metro stands with our AANHP community against hate and discrimination and commits to fighting structural and institutional racism.
I encourage you to spend time exploring the numerous AANHP community hubs, businesses and restaurants throughout our County and region. Providing access to them is one way Metro honors and celebrates these communities in our everyday work.
Read the full message from Metro's General Manager Michelle Allison on our Metro Matters blog.
