If you have doubts about light rail to West Seattle, walk the route Sept. 17

"No build" proponents urging people to "Rethink the link" in favor of surface transportation improvements

A grass roots effort by West Seattleites who have serious doubts about the cost, efficacy and timing of Sound Transit's extension of the line to West Seattle are inviting neighbors to walk part of the proposed light rail route on September 17th, starting at 11 a.m. at Ounces Taproom & Beer Garden on Delridge Way SW. They instead favor a "No Build" option.
