There are a multitude of answers. All require space. And building any of them will spike the problem for a time.

That said, I think we are getting there. I'm somewhat confident that the current problems are the spike.

Agreed, I just wish the light rail expansions weren't going to take 20 years. We need those lines yesterday.

The Eastside Rail Corridor, from Renton to Bothell, has existed for more than 50 years. It even still has tracks on it.

I find it infuriating that Renton asked for nothing in the ST3 bill, and Kirkland was swayed by a small group of activists into asking SoundTransit not to use the Cross Kirkland Corridor.
