Metro unveils new anti-harassment campaign
 Across King County Metro, you?ll soon see a new, multilingual effort to keep transit safe for all. Developed in coordination with community members and employees, the campaign sets a clear expectation for respectful behavior. The signs also let riders know to get help in an emergency and encourages reporting.
Leading with the headline, ?It?s OK to Say, That?s Not OK,? the signs then include specific language referencing the?Code of Conduct. ?All harassment ? physical, verbal, intimidation ? is wrong,? read the ads. ?Speak up. Keep transit safe for all.?
Depending on the situation and the person?s own comfort level, there are three actions for riders to choose from:
- Tell the driver
- Fill out an online comment form (?kingcounty.gov/metro/ride?) or call the customer service office (206-553-3000)
- Call or text 9-1-1 if there is an emergency
Available in King County but not nationwide,??Text-to-9-1-1??is helpful for people who are deaf, hard of hearing, speech impaired or in an unsafe situation.
