In order to accommodate the sizeable expected crowd in Seattle, transportation leaders in the Washington State Senate have decided to move the scheduled transportation feedback forum from its original location to the nearby First Presbyterian Church, a facility that can comfortably hold many more attendees.

The Senate Transportation Committee is co-chaired by Sen. Curtis King, R-Yakima, and Sen. Tracey Eide, D-Federal Way. The two have visited seven Washington cities in the past month, spending three hours at each listening to the transportation concerns of area residents. The Seattle stop will take place from 6-9 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 14, at Seattle First Presbyterian Church, 1013 8th Ave.

The Senate Transportation Feedback Forum tour began Sept. 17 in Bellevue, and subsequently moved to Everett, Wenatchee, Yakima, Pasco, Spokane Valley, and Vancouver in the following weeks. The next forum is scheduled for tomorrow in Tacoma, followed by the new Seattle location and concluding in Bellingham on Tuesday, Oct. 15.
