I got an email to sign CON for the House bill for this because I had apparently done the same for the Senate bill which I definitely didn't do. I wrote it off as a clerical error and used it as a reminder to sign PRO but looks like I might be one of the 37,824 www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

The latest Seattle Transit Measure newsletter only lists pedestrian safety improvements for recent STM-funded Transit Capital Projects. These are desperately needed, but why do we need to raid transit funds to complete them, and where are the projects for transit speed and reliability?

Sound Transit will operate 1 Line trains every six minutes from 7 AM to 6 PM for the Seahawks victory parade. I'd imagine they have to be shuttling over trains from OMF East to support this, glad to see some benefits of the 2 Line even before simulated service starts.

We're going to get out the red paint on Denny Way. #thisisyourcity

I guess @sound-transit.bsky.social agreed that the station spacing downtown was a bit too close so now Pioneer Square is both station 51 and 52

I just got on a Link train full of Seahawks fans. It smells like alcohol, people are singing "We are the Champions", and there's another car chanting "SEA.... HAWKS" at every stop. Life is good.

Took the Gearhouse shuttle to go night skiing for the first time yesterday which was great! It's restricted behind a $200/mo membership but was still completely packed with 11 people on a Thursday night with bad snow. Happy to see it be so successful and hope we can see more like it in the future!

Excited to announce 2 executive orders at my transition team meeting. My Shelter and Housing Accelerator order will speed efforts to rapidly bring people inside. And my Transit Accelerator order will finally implement a bus lane on Denny. More details on my blog at wilson.seattle.gov #thisisyourcity

We are beyond honored to have joined Mayor Wilson this morning to announce an executive order for bus lanes on Denny Way. We can't wait to finally Fix the L8 and see what she has in store for the next 4 years of Seattle's transit

Sound Transit just uploaded their latest System Expansion Monthly Status Report, which uses November data. We are 37 days ahead of the East Link schedule, which also includes 24 days of extra float. I'd bet that the revenue service date is likely going to be late or even mid March.

This is 3 weeks ahead of what would be required for a May 31st revenue service date according to the critical path analysis from page 34 of October's System Expansion Monthly Status Report released earlier this month. www.soundtransit.org/sites/defaul...

2 Line testing underway! Looks like Sound Transit unfortunately turned off real time arrival information for station signage though

TIL Girmay is Joy's brother-in-law

I guess I'm addicted to checking transit arrival times???

Well that's not good. No alert from ST either

Just realized this photo was probably taken during Race the L8. That's the same outfit Katie wore and 8047 is the coach that we raced.

One thing that stands out to me is that AMR has the only graph where "Approve" is trending upwards and "Disapprove" downwards as "Not sure" responses decrease. Seems like the biggest thing holding back her approval rating is just a lack of awareness from the public for the amazing work she's doing.
