In a series of upcoming public workshops, the Department of Transportation wants to hear your thoughts and ideas regarding transportation to help shape the future of transportation in Seattle.

In January, Mayor McGinn and the City Council convened a 14-member Citizens Transportation Advisory Committee III (CTAC) to advise them on priorities for maintaining and improving Seattle streets and sidewalks and to evaluate funding options including a potential ballot measure.

Input from the community will inform the CTAC’s decisions and recommendations.

The North Seattle public workshop is coming up on May 24th and will be held at the Fremont Library from 5:30 p.m. until 7:30 p.m. Mayor Mike McGinn will be in attendance to hear what North Seattlites have to say.

The Fremont Library is located at 731 N. 35th Street.

The agenda for the event is as follows:

5:30-6:00 p.m. Open house
6:00-6:30 p.m. Presentations by CTAC members and Seattle Dept. of Transportation Director Peter Hahn
6:30-7:30 p.m. Small group discussions

CTAC members and Seattle Department of Transportation staff will participate in each event to answer questions and hear comments.

Those unable to attend a workshop can provide a comment or take an online survey at www.seattle.gov/transportation/ctac.htm.
