Join Transportation Choices Coalition for our Sound Transit South King County Town Hall!

Location: Highline College, Building 2
Address: 2400 S. 240th Street Des Moines, WA 98198
Sound Transit is navigating a critical phase in determining what the future of light rail will look like. Following announced cost overruns of around $35 billion for the long-range plan, the agency is reassessing how to deliver the transit system voters approved while facing real financial and logistical challenges. Although the Federal Way Light Rail extension has been delivered to South King County, decisions will need to be made by Sound Transit Board members that will affect completing the other projects, including the Boeing Access Infill station, Sounder Expansion, and investments into parking.
Come learn what is on the table and ask questions to Tukwila Mayor Thomas McLeod and King County Councilmember Steffanie Fain. The event will be a hybrid town hall with a brief presentation from Sound Transit on the Enterprise Initiative, a structured Q&A, and then an open Q&A. The event is organized by Transportation Choices Coalition (TCC) and the conversation will be moderated by TCC Advocacy Manager, Holden Minor Ringer.
Snacks and non-alcoholic beverages will be provided.
Feel free to reach out to Holden Minor Ringer at holden@transportationchoices.org with any questions.
