The politicians on the STA Board are considering delaying a sales tax reauthorization to (ugh) create space for a jail ballot measure.
Please use this tool to send them a note urging them to move forward with reauthorization today.
Only takes 30 seconds!

If everyone in this town was forced to give up their car for one just one week, I genuinely think the sentiment around traffic (particularly pedestrian) safety would change. I ditched my parking pass a year and a half ago, started taking the bus and walking more, and it has been an eye opener.
TIF + massive upzonings are basically the “One Weird Trick” to pay for high-quality transit, faster.
Ahh, Mobility-as-a-Service.
Never before has an innovation spurred so much excitement among transportation researchers while eliciting a collective shrug from the traveling public.

STA is at risk of losing 25% of its operational funding in 2028 if voters don't renew a portion of local sales tax.
Please take a moment to send a message to Spokane Transit Authority's Board of Directors to express your support for maintained transit operations.

In just seven days this month, seven New Yorkers were killed in traffic crashes. One death a day should be unacceptable.

Spokane Transit quietly served over 15,200 passenger boardings on Sunday, March 1, the first time ever surpassing 15k passengers for STA on a non-Bloomsday Sunday. Overall, Sunday ridership is running 33% higher than pre-COVID levels, representing the highest growth rate among service days.

Everybody works but the vacant lot.
Thanks so much for amplifying!!
I never imagined growing up in Idaho that one day I could bike to work! In Spokane, I can, and even in the last year I’ve watched new infrastructure on my route get put in to make it safer :)
