7 NL 60 Cora Lawrence NL 60- Comment noted. This page has been intentionally left blank NL 60- As discussed in Chapter 3 of the 003 Draft SEIS, the station and alignment is not expected to worsen traffic congestion. The project is intended to provide an alternative to sitting in traffic. NL 60-3 A transit system in exclusive right-of-way is needed in this area to avoid delays from congestion. This will enable bus routes to be redeployed to serve underserved areas and provide access to light rail. NL 60-4 (ST) Please refer to common comment PP-. The University of Washington is a large employer, serves a large population of students, and includes a medical center, which is also a large employer. Ridership forecasts for the year 030 estimate daily boardings at light rail stations in the University District ranging from 0,500 to 35,500 boardings per day. Section.3 of the 003 Draft SEIS, states that the purpose of this project is to construct and operate an electric light rail system connecting the region s major activity centers, which includes the University District. NL 60-5 (ST) Sound Transit has considered public input. As described in detail in Appendix B, Public Involvement, included in Volume of the Draft North Link SEIS, Sound Transit conducted an extensive public outreach process prior to and during the SEIS process.
