Strategy. In December, 2014, Sound Transit adopted an update to its long range plan,which identified the light <br /> rail alignment in a similar conceptual configuration to that shown on the following page. More detailed planning <br /> stations. <br /> -- -- - -- - : - . : Everett is beyond the control of Everett alone,and will be decided after <br /> the City adopts the 2015 update of the comprehensive plan. If the Sound Transit board of directors determines <br /> that light rail service will not begin by about 2030,or if the voters within the Sound Transit district fail to support <br /> Phase 3, Everett's land use concept will have to be re evaluated,growth targets for the City of Everett will have to <br /> be re evaluated,and the regional growth strategy assumptions revisited across the region. <br /> No matter what happens with the regional decisions concerning Sound Transit Phase 31n addition to light rail, <br /> Everett's local transportation system will require a variety of improvements and supportive land use strategies. <br /> The local transit system will be improved with more frequent service, and revisions to bus routes and schedules to <br /> support development and activities in desired growth areas. In turn, higher land use intensities will be <br /> encouraged in the areas where improvements to the transit system are proposed. Land use strategies will also <br /> include requiring transit compatible site and building development in and near transit corridors. While the <br /> automobile will remain as the dominant mode of transportation,the proportion of trips made using other forms <br /> of transportation will increase. Improvements will be made to the street system to encourage walking and <br /> bicycling for both recreational and travel purposes. <br /> Figure is Everett Link Extension <br /> 1 <br /> Everett Link Extension <br /> - Surface u_-S 2 <br /> Elevated Everett Station 0 <br /> O Station area • <br /> • <br /> 0 Provisional station area <br /> 3 <br /> Service by 2036 <br /> — Light rail o' <br /> 0 Station W <br /> SW Everett A "•'• 526/ <br /> Industrial Center- <br /> • Evergreen <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> e. <br /> SR 99/Airport Road ci Mariner <br /> 128th St SW <br /> ow <br /> Ash Way <br /> 9 164th St SW <br /> • <br /> West Alderwood Mall 00.; <br /> Lynnwood (2024) <br /> I ) <br /> To Seattle <br /> LAND USE ELEMENT, 2019 Amendment 14 <br /> Exhibit 1 -Page 14 <br />
