The Bellevue Chamber’s Transportation Committee meets monthly to hear from transportation experts, analyze the information presented, determine how the Bellevue Chamber can send a strong business message to the public, and, generally, gather information to share with other business people in Bellevue and the Eastside. The Transportation Committee is the Chamber’s primary business voice on transportation issues of importance locally, regionally, and nationally. Bellevue business people intent on increasing mobility in an efficient way and helping policy-makers make strategic transportation funding choices attend each month to stay on top of the most pressing issues of the day. The Transportation Committee has advocated for a statewide transportation package anchored by a gas tax, especially as it relates to mobility in Bellevue and throughout the Eastside.
