23 Snoqualmie Pass Comprehensive Safety Plan I Kittitas County <br />Outreach Activities <br />Phase 1: Listening and Learning <br />Recognizing that collision data is <br />inherently reactive as collisions <br />are only reported after they occur, <br />the project team prioritized <br />hearing directly from communicy <br />members to better understand <br />near-miss locations, perceived <br />safecy concerns, and ideas for <br />improvement. <br />To do this, the team launched an online <br />engagement effort with two main components: <br />. An interactive map where participants could <br />pinpoint specific locations of concern related <br />to transportation safety and capacity; and <br />. A survey to gather additional context and <br />demographic information (Figure 4). <br />Outreach for the online engagement included <br />flyers and posters placed throughout the <br />community, distribution to email groups and <br />on social media by stakeholder partners, <br />and a text blast from the Fire Department <br />reaching approximately 300 residents (Figure <br />4). The website was open for public input from <br />September 25th,2024 through May 31st, 2025. <br />lnteractive Map <br />The project team developed an interactive map <br />to allow community members to identify specific <br />locations where they experience tra nsportation- <br />related safety or capacity concerns. As shown <br />in Figure 5, participants could place markers <br />on the map and were prompted to indicate <br />the mode of travel associated with each <br />concern-walking/rolling, biking, driving, or <br />other. Participants were also asked to indicate <br />if the concern was primarily related to winter <br />conditions, summer conditions, or present <br />year-round. A total of 30 people contributed, <br />generating 194 combined markers, comments, <br />and upvotes. This input highlighted both unique <br />issues and areas of shared concern across the <br />community. <br />Survey <br />To complement the interactive map, the <br />project team created a survey to gather more <br />detailed information about the community's <br />transportation safety and capacity challenges as <br />well as the demographics of participants. A total <br />of 58 people responded, providing input on the <br />specific issues they encounter when traveling <br />in Snoqualmie Pass and ranking their top three <br />safety and capacity concerns. These responses <br />provided valuable insight into both individual <br />experiences and broader community priorities. <br />For a detailed summary of the online <br />engagement effort responses, see Appendix C. <br />q Scan the QR code to share yosr <br />feellngs, obseruation+ and ldeas <br />through the proiect website: <br />Wewantto <br />hearfromyou! <br />3o[rEnGliosSAAANDG <br />r,gTED! <br />Figure 4.

Kittitas County wants to <br />address transportation safety concerns by reviewing <br />locations where crashes have occurred and where <br />you feel unsafe walking. rolling. biking, and driving. <br />HOIMTO GET INVOLVED? <br />ffi# <br />ffi rb.gylbdcjrw <br />Welcome <br />E@tutt@E.Cry6eSt.ets Esld <br />@hrq,n9.6rr'ffi r!4r,: {+!6 14 {.{rEs.c! <br />ffi&dbdffi <br />o etkwhr(.@.etsF <br />Tim€line <br />tur:lJ@sr,dto <br />frda{r,4r!brd (ry'/- <br />4*t b ,l,@ is hyif,-n ,rf. r, rtur ^1rs. <br />rr.s.ier slry rfiYr <br />@ <br />K€y DatEs <br />O sendqr Be.sF <br />f.*i!..Y e*r rg <br />Wh.tsab.lx9 <br />Contect Us <br />Erq, r*-l\@LrQ!r <br />€l 5 lins Fndl^i., <br />le &. d,: r/614 rr{ ltrb-t <br />Snoqua lmie Pass Comprehensive Safety <br />Action Plan
