Snoqualmie Valley Mobility Coalition
Access to transportation is vital, particularly in rural areas, where the lack of independent mobility may significantly impact people's lives, determining whether they are isolated or actively involved in the community. Having transportation options enables individuals to schedule doctor’s appointments, attend school, maintain jobs, and spend quality time with family and friends. Mobility issues often include a lack of vehicle access, inadequate infrastructure, long distances, lengthy travel times, transportation costs, and policies that hinder travel and progress.
In 2017, the Snoqualmie Valley Mobility Coalition (SVMC) was established through collaboration with advocates and local cities throughout the Valley, including healthcare providers, human services organizations, government agencies, non-profits, and transit end-users. The Coalition's main goal was to enhance the regional transportation network in the Snoqualmie Valley by providing safe, reliable, equitable, affordable, and accessible transportation options for all.
