Mobility and Access Policy Moves

Mobility and Access is key element of neighborhood area planning because it shapes how people move around their neighborhood to get to daily needs. Polices in this section can inform future capital improvements around streets and trails, future development patterns that are more fine-grained and walkable, and collaboration opportunities with transit agencies as new transit options transform how people get around the city.

Goal

To improve local and regional mobility options so that the community has safe and convenient access to destinations inside and outside the neighborhood.

Policy Moves

Coordinating with Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) on relieving congestion near Interstate 90

Completing the Mountains to Sound Greenway through Eastgate and improving local connections to it

Creating sidewalks and crossings where they are missing on local streets

Coordinating with transit providers on local and regional service, access, and stop/station amenities

Developing walkable, pedestrian-friendly blocks in Eastgate’s mixed-use areas
