Long-Range Plan issue papers were drafted at the request of the Sound Transit Board of Directors to provide them with information they need to make long range decisions about the future of our regional mass transit system. These papers explore questions that have been raised by the Board or the public about potentially amending the Long-Range Plan. These papers address issues such as extending light rail in Tacoma or developing a Bus Rapid Transit corridor on Highway 99 between Seattle and Everett. The issue papers were released in March and considered by the Board of Directors prior to its adoption of the Draft Long-Range Plan on April 28, 2005.
