Transportation and Mobility –
No Matter How You Travel
As a renter and transit rider who chooses to not own a car, I am personally aware of the challenges we face as a city to provide carbon-free (and car-free) mobility options. To meet climate goals and improve safety and mobility no matter how you get around our city, I am committed to a safe, multi-modal transportation system that works for everyone.

TO IMPROVE SAFETY AND MOBILITY, I WILL
- Support the Move Seattle Levy renewal to invest in basics like road and bridge repair, safer access to transit and schools, reduce need for short car trips to neighborhood shopping and services, and meet climate goals through electrification, streetside tree planting, and other improvements.
- Improve safety and connectivity with thoughtful street redesign, pedestrian lighting, protected bike lanes, and transit stop safety and repairs.
- Center people in navigating our city to build an integrated local system that prioritizes walking, rolling, biking and public transit.
- Make navigating our city easier through new sidewalks, reducing barriers to biking, better transit schedules, and accessible pedestrian signals.
- Support equitable transit-oriented development to make our community accessible to all.
- Work with state and local partners to secure funding for multi-family and public EV charging stations, and other programs that lower the barrier to clean and zero-emission vehicle adoption
- Explore progressive revenue options to fund changes to our public transit to align with
community priorities
for safety, mobility, maintenance, and livability.
