The Public Transportation and Intercity Rail Passenger Plan for Washington State is a 20-year plan for preserving our current public transportation systems while improving mobility for a growing population. The plan builds toward a future in which people have more public transportation choices, in which connections between modes are efficient and easy to use, and where state, local, private, and federal public transportation services are coordinated. The plan envisions people able to move through congested intercity corridors using a variety of transportation options, including intercity passenger rail and proposes a sensible, incremental approach for achieving a service which is efficient, rapid, reliable, and safe. The plan clarifies the states role in public transportation, describes the present condition of public transportation in the state, and discusses significant issues. Then future needs are identified, realistic strategies are proposed for addressing those needs, and responsibilities for achieving them identified.
