		News from King County Department of Transportation Release date: June 17, 2008 Downtown Bellevue gets ‘in motion’ again as summer begins King County Metro Transit is bringing “In Motion” back to downtown Bellevue. The program is aimed at increasing the use of transit, carpooling, bicycling and walking in the downtown area by providing information and incentives to residents willing to take a pledge. As the summer begins, Metro is teaming up with the City of Bellevue and the Bellevue Downtown Association to encourage downtown Bellevue residents to make the most of urban living by riding the bus, carpooling, bicycling and walking more often. They are working together on the Downtown Bellevue In Motion program to provide downtown residents with information on driving less to save money, protect the environment, get healthy, and earn rewards. Key components of the 10-week program include an informational mailing with a neighborhood map, a Metro Free Ride ticket, a Zipcar offer for participants, and details on how to earn a Bellevue Collection gift card. With all of the businesses, shopping and entertainment outlets now in downtown Bellevue, getting around without a car has never been easier. You can earn In Motion rewards just by committing to eliminate two drive-alone trips a week from your regular routine. The program began taking registrations the week of June 9th, and all the details can be found at the In Motion Website. For more information about the Downtown Bellevue In Motion program, contact Program Manager Sunny Knott at (206) 263-6397, or by email.
