Off-duty King County Metro bus driver honored for heroism
When one King County Metro driver’s heart attack sent a bus down an embankment, an off-duty colleague intervened to save the driver and the passengers.
The Seattle Transportation Levy passed with roughly 66% support. The levy will provide approximately $170 million annually over eight years to fund transportation projects and programs.
With this revenue, the Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) will maintain and modernize the city’s aging infrastructure by building sidewalks, paving streets, repairing bridges and improving connections to transit for a safe, reliable and connected Seattle.
Key investments include:
Accelerating new sidewalk construction and making thousands of repairs
Improving safety for the city’s most vulnerable travelers
Prioritizing paving, street maintenance, and modernization
Extending the lifespan of Seattle’s aging bridges
Creating jobs across the region
For more information you can find this cross posted on the SDOT Blog.
Metro is hiring transit operators (bus drivers) and trades professionals to keep the region moving. Visit kingcounty.gov/MetroCareers to learn more.
