Rachael L<p>Sigh, public engagement portals are often so bad. I was pointed at this one for <a href="https://freeradical.zone/tags/SoundTransit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SoundTransit</span></a> (about a segment in <a href="https://freeradical.zone/tags/Seattle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Seattle</span></a>) -- <a href="https://www.crossingsafetyst.org/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">crossingsafetyst.org/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a>. The first page has a "Let's Go" button which I click. It loads this page. I couldn't figure out how to continue to where I give comment. Turns out there is a tiny right arrow at the bottom that I could click but I didn't notice it because it just seemed like visual noise. I had to turn on VoiceOver to "find" it. At least that worked?</p>

Rachael L<p>Of course when we were getting kiddo up there was a "resolved" text. I LIKE taking the train. But also security lines at airports are pretty variable and I like being early to flights to reduce stress. I didn't trust <a href="https://social.ridetrans.it/tags/SoundTransit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SoundTransit</span></a> to not continue having issues. So driving. At around 8:25 got another alert that trains running every 20-25 minutes. Odds are if I'd stuck with my plan I'd have been waiting stressed out on thr platform for a delayed train.</p>
Rachael L<p>Bad urbanist today: I have a work trip today which requires flying. I needed to arrive at the airport by 9:10 so I planned last night to be at the Beacon Hill <a href="https://social.ridetrans.it/tags/SoundTransit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SoundTransit</span></a> by 8:15 to hopefully catch a ~8:20 train. But when I woke up there were alerts saying trains were running every 30-35 minutes. It takes 20 minutes to drive &amp; so asked my partner to take me because it seemed too much tisk. I can't drive but they can and we have a car. <a href="https://social.ridetrans.it/tags/transit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>transit</span></a></p>

garland<p>Message from my partner who took Link Light Rail to work this morning. The reliability of our region’s premier transit line is just not good enough. <br><a href="https://social.seattle.wa.us/tags/Seattle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Seattle</span></a> <a href="https://social.seattle.wa.us/tags/SoundTransit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SoundTransit</span></a> <a href="https://social.seattle.wa.us/tags/LinkLightRail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LinkLightRail</span></a></p>
garland<p>I wish all Sound Transit board members would subscribe to text alerts for 1 Line status updates. I think they’d get a better idea of how frequently service is disrupted. </p><p>I mean ideally, they’d all be using public transit on a regular basis basis. But short of that, I want them to know every time Link Light Rail is single-tracking due to a mechanical issue or blockage on the street-level tracks. <br><a href="https://social.seattle.wa.us/tags/Seattle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Seattle</span></a> <a href="https://social.seattle.wa.us/tags/LinkLightRail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LinkLightRail</span></a> <a href="https://social.seattle.wa.us/tags/SoundTransit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SoundTransit</span></a></p>
