A safe community is a strong one, and at-grade track crossings are critical points where safety, mobility, and neighborhood connection intersect.
Safer crossings mean improved access for all who live in or visit our transit-connected communities.
Building upon safety enhancements with a “Look out for each other” mindset is the key to widespread safety and a strong, connected community.

The At-Grade Crossing Master Plan
Through the At-Grade Crossing Program Master Plan, we’re identifying and prioritizing safety enhancements systemwide, with an early focus on the Rainier Valley.
The 2025 – 2029 Master Plan identifies completed and current projects, the Program’s priorities, and processes to identify, evaluate, and prioritize potential safety enhancements, allowing for the development and implementation of projects throughout this Program’s duration.
From better signage and barriers to increased education efforts, our goal is to make every crossing safer for pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers.
The draft plan will be finalized in May of 2025.
