Share Your Feedback on Routes to Rails

Light rail is coming to Redmond and the City wants to know how you would like to travel to and from the four future stations: Overlake Village, Redmond Technology, Downtown Redmond, and Marymoor Village. Tell us where you have had challenges in the future station areas, such as feeling unsafe at intersections or experiencing missing sidewalks, as well as what community destinations are most important to you. We will use your input to generate at least one feasible and safe pedestrian route to light rail in each station area. Then, the community will help decide which one we should implement for them to try out in a fun and safe pilot project.

Switching to all-electric appliances, such as heat pumps and induction stoves, can reduce your carbon emissions, improve indoor air quality and comfort, and often reduce bills.
