@kdfrawg no doubt. Seriously, though, I think it's the only way forward for transit systems, as these large projects always take too long to build and don't effectively serve the people they claim to.
There is a transit initiative that they just pushed through around these parts that is raising the car tabs and sales taxes [dor.wa.gov] in the region. Thankfully, I live outside of this area, so I am not financially impacted.
The project they pushed through this most recent tax increase for is a light rail extension between Kent (just south of SeaTac) and Tacoma and is expected to complete in 2030. The extension to Tacoma Community College? 2039.
Are these people high?
