Since 2013, Transportation Choices Coalition has held its annual Transportation Choices Hall of Fame in conjunction with its fall gala. The Hall of Fame honors and acknowledges Transportation Champions from across our state. Everyone – from transit agencies to community advocates – are eligible for nomination*. Some of our previous awardees include Sen. Patty Murray, Seattle Children’s Hospital, Spokane Transit, Rainier High School students, and Dow Constantine.
Check out our previous awardees who have inspired us to walk, bike, roll, and take transit!
*The nomination process is open to the public and announced at least one month before the gala.
