In an effort to strength the community and provide residents with incentives to walk, bike, bus or carpool to work, King County Metro has launched a new campaign: In Motion. As part of the program, “Travel Advisors” are visiting 5,000 homes across the region to talk with residents about trying new ways to get around the neighborhood.

Beginning today thru June 6, look for the team of “travel advisors” as they make their way around the Green Lake neighborhood.  The team, dressed in blue jackets, will conduct personalized, door-to-door outreach (they will never ask to enter a resident’s household).

Advisors will offer residents the option to choose from information and incentives including transit schedules, a neighborhood map, a pedometer and an ORCA card good for two weeks of unlimited travel. If residents are not available to talk, they will receive a leaflet inviting them to contact the In Motion team.
