Policies
At King County Metro, we believe mobility is a human right.
Metro’s policies—our Strategic Plan for Public Transportation, Service Guidelines, and Metro Connects (long-range plan)—will help us contribute to healthy communities, a thriving economy, and a sustainable environment, ultimately leading to the achievement of our Long Game goals.
Working together, these policies help our Metro teams plan for today, tomorrow, and beyond. Metro policies are co-created with input from community partners, elected officials, and other stakeholders countywide. Each reflects key elements of King County’s comprehensive policies, such as the King County Strategic Plan for Equity and Social Justice and the King County Strategic Climate Action Plan.
