Puget Sound Regional Council wants to hear from you!
The Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) reflects the transportation needs of residents and workers in the central Puget Sound region, and guides the decision-making and spending carried out by our state and local governments, transit agencies and ports.
To prepare the draft plan, PSRC staff conducted detailed analyses of our current and future transportation network, and collected feedback at board and committee meetings, community meetings, open houses, focus group interviews, surveys, and direct outreach. You can review the plan, detailed analyses and background information on the Draft Regional Transportation Plan page.

Submit your feedback in three easy steps:

Review the draft plan and supporting documents.
Share your feedback on the plan by February 2, 2026. Comments can be submitted by:

Website: Comment Form
Email: RTPcomment@psrc.org
US Mail: 1201 3rd Ave #500, Seattle, WA 98101

Watch our transportation network grow!

I’ve given feedback. What’s next?
PSRC staff will share your feedback with the Transportation Policy Board. The Board will direct staff to refine the draft plan before recommending it for adoption by the General Assembly. The General Assembly is expected to adopt the plan at it’s annual meeting in May 2026.
