REGIONAL MOBILITY | QUALITY OF LIFE | ECONOMIC COMPETITIVENESS
Welcome
The Eastside Transportation Association (ETA) is a not-for-profit organization of community members, business members and transportation professionals committed to advocating for congestion relief in the Puget Sound Region. Our goal is to increase mobility, improve our quality of life, and retain our region’s economic competitiveness with a world-class transportation system consistent with current and future land use patterns and travel demand.
The ETA holds a monthly meeting, open to the general public, on the third Wednesday of every month at the Master Builders Building in Bellevue between 8:00-9:30AM.

ETA's Bold New Transportation Plan
ETA recently released our Bold New Transportation Plan for the Eastside during our September Monthly Meeting. The plan highlights key focus areas, like funding and prioritization, to get our region out of congestion sooner rather than later. We are already decades behind completing the I-405 Master Plan.
