******* NEW ANNOUNCEMENTS ******

We have been working with Metro and Sound Transfer on some commute trip reduction ideas and we need your help and feed back. Would ride the bus if it were free? Would you take the Sounder from the North end if it cost you nothing? Have you thought about carpooling but don't know who lives near you? We would like to encourage you to explore these options. If these options are not attractive to you, would you tell us why? If you are interested in any of the above options, please e-mail Bev Brandt at bbrandt@shoreline.edu . We need significant interest to enroll in this program.
