OLYMPIA, WA — The Washington State Transportation Commission is releasing a statewide survey this week to find out what Washington state  residents’ priorities are for future transportation investments and how they  think those investments should be paid for. The survey will be conducted online  through the commission’s Voice of  Washington State (VOWS) survey program.

The  program is part of an ongoing effort to bring the views and preferences of  Washingtonians directly to the Governor and the State Legislature who face  tough decisions on how growing transportation needs can be addressed in an  environment of insufficient funding.

The  VOWS survey program currently has more than 30,000 residents participating from  across the state. The survey will be available for about two weeks, so time is  limited to sign up and share your views. To join the program and receive the  survey via email, sign up at the commission’s survey web site: www.VoiceOfWashingtonSurvey.org

The survey seeks input on all things transportation:   highways, mass transit, freight and high-speed rail, ferries, bikes,  pedestrians, aviation and more. It also asks for input on what the investment  priorities should be and how we should pay for them.
