More Local Service Coverage - Walk 5 minutes or less to the stop and make fewer transfers to get to your destination, but waits are longer and total travel time may be longer.

More Regional Service - Connect between Tacoma's commercial centers and other regional destinations with frequent service but fewer stops along the way.

Focus on Rail Service - Expanded Link, Sounder, and street car service.

Increase Bike Carrying Capacity on Transit - Buses and rail cars are equipped with racks and hooks that can hold more bicycles.

Increase Car Share and Vanpool Options - Increase investments in non-traditional, non-fixed route options such as car share and vanpool programs.

Safe Routes to Transit - Sidewalk and crossing improvements within 1/2 mile of transit stops to improve walking safety and comfort.

Real-Time Arrival Information - Displays at bus stops tell passengers exactly when the next bus is scheduled to arrive.

Multi-Modal Trip Planner - Help to combine transit, biking, and walking in one itinerary. This tool is available on-line and as a smart phone app.

Enhanced Vehicles - Enhanced buses have easy boarding, large windows, comfortable seating, and on-board WiFi to improve rider experience.

Enhanced Transit Stops - Bike parking, comfortable seating, and ample lighting to ensure safety and security.
