When you’re traveling around Bellevue, where do you get information about the best route? Please tell us in an online survey, and we’ll work to improve communications regarding road construction, detours and traffic incidents.
Bellevue is experiencing a heightened level of public and private construction. East Link light rail construction, the Spring District development and downtown projects are in full swing, often causing travel disruptions and delays.
The survey, available through 5 p.m. Friday, July 14, seeks feedback on how commuters coming to and from Bellevue get and prefer to receive traveler information. The survey explores use of and satisfaction with city communications tools, such as smartphone apps and social media, to push out traveler information for the Bellevue area.
Responses will help to inform the city on how it can improve availability, accuracy and timeliness of traveler information. Results from the survey will also help guide the development of the city’s Intelligent Transportation Systems master plan, which will identify new technologies and systems to provide improved traveler information.
Responses to the survey are anonymous; however, respondents may indicate interest in participating in a focus group to be led by the city’s Transportation Engineering Division by submitting an email and/or phone number.
The survey is a strategy that supports the Access Bellevue initiative, which is a collaborative communications effort to keep the public informed about East Link light rail and surrounding construction occurring in Bellevue.
