Livable Communities: 
Without strategies that link transportation and land use, development may create more traffic congestion and air pollution, loss of open space, and costly improvements to roads and other infrastructure and services.

WSDOT is helping to create more livable communities by providing planning and preliminary design services to local agencies and other transportation partners, and raising awareness about the important links between community transportation, revitalization, and sustainability.
