The Transit Development Plan (TDP) reports on Pierce Transit's annual operating budget, capital investments, and business strategies, and is submitted to the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) annually. This year’s TDP highlights agency work accomplished in 2020; provides a general outline of services and facility changes anticipated from 2021-2026; and financial elements (both operating and capital), budgeted for 2021 plus projected unmet needs for 2021-2026. Once finalized, Pierce Transit will use the TDP to guide specific development of upcoming service designs, business strategies, and budget considerations.
The Transit Development Plan document is scheduled for formal adoption at the October 11, 2021, Board of Commissioners’ meeting. Pierce Transit will accept written comments on the proposed plan up to Friday, September 24, 2021. Written comments should be submitted to Duane Wakan, Senior Planner, 3701 96th Street SW, Lakewood, WA 98499, or by email at Dwakan@piercetransit.org.
