Certification Planning Review Update

Taking a break from the first session of our Certification Planning Review with the Federal Highway Administration, Federal Transit and Washington State Department of Transportation. So far we've talked about concerns and issues the agency has (funding and reauthorization of a Federal Transportation Bill) and highlighted some of the major projects SRTC and STA have worked on in the past year, such as the Transportation Vision Project, the Inland Pacific Hub, and STA's High Performance Transit Network. So far, so good.
