Investing in Public Transport
Connecting Redmond: A Modern Vision for Public Transport
As a dedicated transit advocate, I believe we must do more to modernise and expand public transport within our city. A thriving Redmond requires a transport network that works for everyone—connecting our neighbourhoods, reducing our carbon footprint, and easing traffic congestion.
My commitment to you is to actively pursue both immediate improvements and visionary, long-term solutions for our region's transport infrastructure.
Immediate Action: Expanding Local Bus Service
To ensure every resident has reliable access to transport, we need to bring bus routes closer to home. My plan includes:
- Neighbourhood Transport Studies: Actively studying and identifying underserved neighbourhoods that require more frequent and accessible bus service.
- Securing Transport Funding: Working closely with state and regional leaders to secure the necessary funding for transport expansion and modernisation.
- Strategic Collaboration: Partnering with Cascades East Transit, our regional service provider, to ensure our local expansion efforts are seamlessly integrated and effectively executed.
Advocating for our future.
Public transport is more than just getting from point A to point B; it is about economic opportunity, environmental stewardship, and community connection. I will continue to make public transport a central pillar of my campaign and my service to this city.
