Jumping in a bit late but look what we've done in Washington in regards to light rail transit. Our first mission is a line from downtown to the airport which will prove over time to move ZERO vehicles from the road. Cost billions. Etc. The EIS states this in regards to the light rail line. NO decrease in congestion.

The monorail from Ballard to West Seattle was a joke from the start. No parking planned in already congested neighborhoods where homeowners park on the street. The West Seattle bridge wasn't even designed for the extra weight/rail line. You can take ONE bus from Ballard to West Seattle without spending billions for whatever type of convenience you perceive that type of service to be.

Our mayor thought it was a good idea to build his own SLUT which moves next to zero people yet causes and has caused massive traffic congestion just so we can all feel so good about our "progress." Give me a f'n break.

If they were going to do it they'd have run the rail down the middle of the freeway from Marysville to Oly and had bus line spurs taking people out to the suburbs.

Any of you ride thru Kent Station? Not somewhere I'd want to hang out waiting for a train due to the quality of people making their transactions within site of KC Metro officials and Sheriff cars. Not to mention that I wouldn't allow a spouse to ride from that station.
