Major Milestone Achieved!

CATS has reached a major milestone on the LYNX Blue Line Extension project with the publishing of the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS).  The Draft EIS documents the potential impacts of the proposed project and its alternatives on the natural and human environment. A 45-day public comment and review period started on Friday, August 27th and will officially close on Tuesday, October 12th.  We will hold two public meetings and one public hearing on the Draft EIS.  The same information will be presented at both public meetings.  The dates and locations are listed below and can be found on CATS’ website, www.ridetransit.org
