Welcome

Welcome to the online engagement hub for the Seattle Transportation Plan

The Seattle Transportation Plan (STP) is a vision for the future of transportation in Seattle.

The STP is our commitment to building a transportation system that provides everyone with access to safe, efficient, and affordable options to reach places and opportunities. The STP will guide local transportation investments for the next 20 years — so we want to hear from you!

Our transportation system is more than just roads. It includes sidewalks, bridges, stairways, transit, paths and trails, bike lanes, crosswalks, public spaces like street cafes and benches, and much more. The transportation system is how everyone moves around the city, connecting us to places and opportunities. But COVID-19, climate change, and rapid population growth make it hard to keep this system running smoothly. That’s why we want to create a sustainable system that works now and in the future.

Equity in the Seattle Transportation Plan

We recognize the impacts of inequitable systems, including intended and unintended outcomes of past and current decision-making structures and investments. Through the Seattle Transportation Plan, we seek not only to do no further harm, but also acknowledge, understand, and address the historic harms caused by our past policies, practices, and programs.

We recognize equity as a key value and believe the transportation system must meet the needs of communities of color and those of all incomes, abilities, and ages. Our goal is to partner with communities to build a racially equitable and socially just transportation system.

The City of Seattle encourages everyone to participate in its programs and activities.

Get Involved

We need your help reshaping transportation in Seattle!

Our second phase of community engagement ended in February 2023. Phase 3 will begin in mid‑2023!

We’ve been inspired by your vision for the future of our transportation system in the first two phases of engagement and are working to reflect your ideas and input in the draft Seattle Transportation Plan (STP).

In Phase 1 we asked about your transportation needs and priorities. This helped us develop our collective vision for the future of Seattle’s transportation system. During Phase 2, we shared what we heard during Phase 1, heard your feedback on our vision, goals, and objectives, and learned what actions you want us to take to improve our transportation system. We also asked for your input on our draft transportation network maps.

Phase 3 of engagement will begin in mid‑2023! During the third phase of engagement, beginning in mid-2023, you’ll have a chance to review the draft STP. You will also be able to help us identify how to select and pay for future work.

We look forward to continuing to work with you to co-create the Seattle Transportation Plan!

Thank you to everyone who has shared input and ideas with us so far! We aren’t done yet. We’ll be sharing more about what we’ve learned from you and ask for your input on the draft Seattle Transportation Plan later this year!

What did we learn in Phase 1?

Phase 1 focused on your transportation needs and priorities, which helped us develop our collective vision for the future of Seattle’s transportation system. Our Phase 1 Engagement Summary Report details the engagement that ran from May through August 2022 and outlines the key takeaways that will help us co-create the plan with the communities of Seattle.

Review what you and your neighbors shared on our Phase 1 interactive mapping tool

What did we learn in Phase 2?

During Phase 2, we shared what we heard from you during Phase 1 and showed how your input is guiding the plan’s vision, goals, and objectives. We also asked you to share how you want to get around in the future, what actions you would like us to take, and what you’d like to see in our draft transportation maps.

We will share the Phase 2 Engagement Summary Report this spring. It will detail engagement from September 2022 through February 2023.

In the meantime, you can review feedback shared on our interactive mapping tool. We will be using your input to refine these network maps. Updated maps will be included in the draft STP.

We use this information as part of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act and other federal reporting.

What is the environmental review process for the Seattle Transportation Plan?
What is the environmental review process for the Seattle Transportation Plan?

The STP will go through the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) review process. SEPA ensures environmental values are thoroughly considered during the planning and decision-making processes. Under SEPA, and Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is a required study that provides the City, public, and other agencies with anticipated environmental outcomes of the Seattle Transportation Plan. You can review our SEPA Fact Sheet to learn more!

SEPA Scoping Report

Scoping, which occurred earlier this year, was the first step of the EIS process. It was an opportunity for the community to review and provide feedback on the proposed alternatives, and to tell the City what elements of the built and natural environment should be studied. You can read the full SEPA Scoping Report to learn how your comments are shaping this process.

How does the EIS support the Seattle Transportation Plan?

The findings of the EIS will reinforce our commitment to transparency and contribute to informed decision-making. Your comments on the EIS are being incorporated in tandem with input shared through the larger community engagement for the STP. You don’t need to reshare any comments you’ve already provided!

Scoping Comment Period — June 16–July 29, 2022: Thank you to everyone who shared comments with us during the comment period. Your input is informing what will be included in the Environmental Impact Statement.

Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) Release and 30-day Comment Period — Early 2023: Once the draft EIS is released, the community is invited to share comments. These comments are incorporated into the final EIS, along with responses.

Final EIS Published — Mid‑2023: The final EIS, which includes responses to comments shared on the draft EIS, will be used to inform the decision-making process
