This year more than 1,900 employees responded to our annual commute choice survey, and we retained 15 businesses on the program. We also added two new employers: courtyard by marriott and the federal energy regulatory commission. With those additions, we now have over 2,200 Lloyd employees on the universal pass program. Though over all transit ridership numbers are comparatively low, we continue to administer and actively promote this highly effective program.

This major new piece of infrastructure is the culmination of a 30-year vision to strenghen the physical connections between Lloyd and the central eastside, and serves as a vital link in the future green loop. Go Lloyd helped fund construction of the bridge, and fully funded a pedestrian and bicycle counter, similar to the one on the tilikum crossing, installed at the bridge's north landing.
