Mountlake Terrace, WA
Climate Rail Alliance
Climate Rail Alliance provides a platform for people who value our existing rail networks and want to expand, improve, electrify, and innovate both passenger and freight service, toward the following goals and objectives:
*Climate emissions reduction
*Respecting the climate emergency
*Air pollution reduction
*Jobs and economic equity and recovery
*Environmental and mobility justice
*Optimal utilization
*Community connectivity with transit and multimodal
*Excellence in user experience
*Increased speeds, frequency, reliability
*Increased training, expertise, and safety
*Public education, outreach, advocacy
We explore why and how this expansion should take priority over investment in highway development, and over ‘ultra’ high speed trains or ‘bullet' trains, which may not be operational for several decades. We believe that rail plays a vital role in transportation and climate policy when integrated effectively with transit and other modes. We engage in local, state, and nationwide rail advocacy and projects.
