Greenwood Transit
1. Greenwood:
Transit
at
a
Crossroads
A
minor
change
to
the
proposed
service
change
would
make
a
night-‐and-‐day
difference
to
transit
service
in
our
neighborhood
2. Greenwood
is
one
of
11
designated
urban
villages
north
of
the
Ship
Canal
in
Sea<le’s
Comprehensive
Plan
Accordingly,
we
have
welcomed
significant
growth
over
the
past
two
decades
3. We
lack
direct
connecFons
to
key
nearby
desFnaFons.
Under
Metro’s
proposal,
we
would
lose
yet
another.
Metro’s
proposal
would
eliminate
current
Route
5
connecFon
to
Northgate
and
North
Sea<le
Community
College
• Important
to
teenagers,
seniors,
students,
and
connecFon
to
regional
transit
We
have
no
direct
service
now
to
Ballard
or
Fremont
4. Transfers
to
Northgate
at
Greenwood
and
105th
would
be
unpleasant
and
inconvenient
Transfers
can
work
for
commute
trips
with
convenient
connecFons,
frequent
and
reliable
service
–
BUT,
–
They
are
a
major
disincenFve
to
transit
use
to
local
desFnaFons
for
everyday
non-‐work
trips.
