Transportation Choices Coalition

Our Mission

Transportation Choices Coalition brings people together to advocate for safe, sustainable, and equitable transportation across Washington. 

Our Vision

We envision thriving, transit-oriented communities where people of every race, class, ability, and zip code can get where they need to go.

Our Work

Transportation Choices Coalition is a policy and advocacy nonprofit dedicated to making transportation accessible to all in Washington State. We pass policies that support more transit, bike, and pedestrian improvements at the state, regional, and local levels.

From the Palouse to the Peninsula, we all want our communities to be inclusive, connected, and thriving. Public transit like light rail and buses, and accessible walking and biking routes, give people of all ages and abilities healthy, clean, and affordable ways to get around. We all deserve access to these transportation options. 

At Transportation Choices Coalition, we have a thirty-year track record of helping to build a transportation system that connects people to jobs, education, housing, health care, communities, and each other. We bring together a variety of partners from across the state to work toward a common goal — more transportation choices that get you where you need to go. 

Take a look at what we were able to accomplish in 2023. We are making Washington State a national leader on equitable, accessible, and sustainable transportation. Join us.

Our Priorities

• Pass policies that increase transit service, reduce carbon emissions, and foster healthy and thriving communities. Monitor the implementation of passed policies to ensure accountability and equitable outcomes.
• Increase funding for transit, bike, and pedestrian infrastructure through advocacy that organizes communities to champion more transportation choices.
• Build intersectional coalitions that bring together business, labor, social justice, environmental, health, and transportation advocates to win policies and funding.
• Enhance public awareness and support for transit, bike, and pedestrian choices through our education partnerships with businesses, universities, neighborhoods, and other community organizations.
• Urge the development of racial and social equity programs and tools at agencies and governments to help them center and evaluate equity within their work.
