Presentation transcript:

 Connect the activity of cores throughout the region with transit and have vast majority of new housing and office developments within these activity centers

 Reduces reliance on private automobiles  Provides viable alternative to driving alone  Transit stations are focal points for compact, mixed-use, walkable, transit-oriented development, which make them more sustainable  Reduces vehicle-miles of travel and emissions

Miles of Transitway

Population (in millions)

Miles of Transitway Per 100,000 Population

 Washington was better served by transit 80 years ago than it is today.  Plans have been proposed to double the existing transitway mileage.  Even with this additional mileage, the region would be served by less than half the mileage provided 80 years ago when indexed to population.  200 additional miles of transitway is a little less than half the planned mileage and is a reasonable goal.
