Abstract

Public transportation in the Puget Sound region of Washington State is provided for by seven transit agencies and the state ferry system. Through the Puget Sound Council of Governments, these providers co-operate to improve the regional public transportation system and to encourage intersystem use. This regional co-operation has not yet extended to providing for specialised transportation services. The Puget Sound Council of Governments formed a committee to study regional travel for specialised transportation users to appraise policies affecting specialised transportation and to promote service parity. The existing conditions, assessment findings, recommended policy direction, and implementation actions developed by the study group are reported in this paper. This study included the six-county area of Jefferson, King, Kitsap, Pierce, Snohomish, and Thurston counties, Washington.
