$4.1 billion for multimodal is an improvement from other packages. But we need more to just meet the active transportation gaps identified by WSDOT. And that doesn't take into account all the local need for bike/ped infrastructure, nor the need for public transit funding.
can you ask them about funding WSDOT active transportation plan identified gaps?
