I do not support bus rapid transit on the Cross Kirkland Corridor.
There are many safety concerns with buses on the CKC: It is near many parks and schools. It’s used by many school kids.
It connects neighborhoods and has a lot of pedestrian cross traffic.
I will oppose ST3 if it includes transit on the CKC.
I am also an avid walker. I belong to Volkswalking and I do meet up groups with other walkers and we use this trail. I also run the 12k’s of Xmas and do the Mother’s day 1/2 marathon and these both use the trail as well.
Please do not take this trail away from us and give it to Metro.
