On the train.
Link light rail has arrived. Next stop: Northgate for Watershed Pub and a late lunch.

Gestern habe ich eine Testfahrt mit einem S-Pedelec von #Stromer gemacht. Getestetes Modell: Stromer #ST5 mit Kette, ABS und 983 Wh Akku von stromvelo.ch. (Ich wollte eigentlich den #ST3 testen, aber der war gerade nicht verfügbar.)

Gefahrene Route: Einmal um den oberen Zürichsee, mit Abstecher auf den Etzel (durchschnittliche Steigung 11%, maximale Steigung fast 16%). Total 54 km, 850 hm.

Hey Seattle Transit Friends

Once again, there's corpo-political BS going on with light rail. Seems that under some Amazon influence, the ST board is aiming to go against their own staff recommendations for the CID station location. Apparently, Amazon is concerned about their drivers being slowed down by construction. Screw that!

Do the thing. Click the link and send the letter to tell them to do the right thing here.

Light Rail for All

Help us tell the Sound Transit Board to follow their own staff's recommendation to move forward with their current "Preferred Alternative" in South Lake Union, instead of adding huge costs and delays for our light rail system delivery for a worse experience for transit riders.

Starship Troopers 3: Marauder (ST3) is a film that could have been one of the best, if not the best, in the Starship Troopers series. Unfortunately, the

Seattle Subway: Sound Transit Must Commit to a Shallower 4th Avenue CID Station

Plans for South Downtown “FrankenHub” would be disastrous for generations of light rail riders As we enter the seventh year of Sound Transit 3 (ST3) expansion planning, Sound Trans…

A little newslet - After a long time neutral or distant from the debate, Uwajimaya just endorsed the Union Station/4th Ave. S #ST3 station site based on "better connectivity" in the area.

New on NPI's Cascadia Advocate: Seattle voters love ST3’s Ballard and West Seattle light rail extensions, but will they love the alignment Sound Transit’s board picks? | #ST3

Seattle voters love ST3's Ballard and West Seattle light rail extensions, but will they love the alignment Sound Transit’s board picks?

81% of likely February 2023 special election voters in Seattle support light rail to Ballard and West Seattle, which is in design. Sound Transit would be wise to keep that in mind when making alignment decisions that our region will have to live with for decades.

And tomorrow is supposed to be decision day

A new #ST3 option by @KccClaudia and @wsdot sec'y Roger Millar. It keeps existing International District/Chinatown Station connected to the region; Ballard and West Seattle riders would do the train-switching, off the Brown Line at Westlake and Sodo.
