<ul>
<li>SDOT is proud to release our first-ever <a href="https://www.seattle.gov/transportation/about-us/climate-response">Clima… Change Response Framework</a> (CCRF), our vision for reducing transportation emissions and making it easier for Seattleites to choose more efficient, shared, and sustainable travel options.&nbsp;</li>

<li>The framework describes the need to accelerate all the climate work we are already doing, while identifying other new ideas to further move the needle.&nbsp;</li>

<li>The CCRF is a critical input into the <a href="https://seattletransportationplan.infocommunity.org/&quot; target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Seattle Transportation Plan (STP)</a>, the 20-year vision for our future transportation system.&nbsp;</li>

<li>Climate response will take all of us. Let’s take the next step together.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>

<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" />

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>We are proud to release our first-ever <a href="https://www.seattle.gov/transportation/about-us/climate-response">Clima… Change Response Framework</a> (CCRF)! This will be our guide to reducing transportation emissions and making progress on the goals and strategies contained in Mayor Harrell’s </strong><a href="https://sdotblog.seattle.gov/2022/12/09/transportation-climate-executiv…; target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong><em>OneSeattle </em>Transportation &amp; Climate Justice Executive Order</strong></a><strong>.</strong>&nbsp;</h2>

<p>At SDOT, we have a responsibility to make Seattle a more walkable, bikeable, transit-friendly, and climate-resilient city. Since transportation emissions are the number one source of climate pollution in Seattle, we have a big role to play to mitigate the local effects of climate change.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Our role in climate change response is already underway through our policies, programs, and the way we design our streets. The Climate Change Response Framework (CCRF) lays out SDOT’s vision to accelerate this work to reduce transportation emissions, by making it easier to choose more efficient, shared, and sustainable transportation options.&nbsp;</p>

<p>This framework acts as a critical input into the <a href="https://seattletransportationplan.infocommunity.org/&quot; target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Seattle Transportation Plan (STP)</a>, our 20-year vision for the future of our transportation system. As we developed the plan, we heard that you want us to be bold and transformative as we evolve our system to meet the moment&nbsp;through urgent climate response. The STP will work hand in hand with the One Seattle Plan to create a healthy, sustainable future for Seattle. These efforts will have benefits well beyond reducing climate pollution, creating safer streets and improving air quality and health outcomes, especially in those neighborhoods disproportionally impacted by climate change.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>CCRF focus for Climate Response</strong>&nbsp;</p>

<ul>
<li><strong>Creating a better climate future, together</strong>&nbsp; We are already working on solutions and have many of the tools needed to reduce our climate impact. Now is the time to build and accelerate our climate work, especially to benefit historically underserved communities who are already facing disproportionate climate impacts like extreme heat and more frequent urban flooding. A response centered on climate justice requires us to co-create solutions with community, including our community-based organizations and the Transportation Equity Workgroup.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>

<figure class="wp-block-pullquote has-text-align-left"><blockquote><p><strong>Collaborating with Members of the </strong><a href="https://www.seattle.gov/transportation/projects-and-programs/programs/t… Equity Workgroup</strong>&nbsp;</a><br>In 2023, the Transportation Equity Workgroup met with SDOT staff on several emergent topics, one of which was climate change. Discussions centered on the nexus between climate response and our core values of equity and safety, and how to connect the dots within our communities. We used this feedback to inform the cross-cutting nature of the CCRF and will continue to focus on communicating with and allowing local communities to shape projects so that co-benefits of climate investments are realized equitably.&nbsp;</p></blockquote></figure>

<li><strong>Making short trips safe, affordable, and zero-emission</strong>&nbsp; Most emissions in Seattle come from short trips under 3 miles. We are working with communities to design our streets and provide programs to make it easy and safe to take transit, bike, roll or walk these short distance trips much more often.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>

<li><strong>Make it more convenient, reliable, and affordable to ride transit</strong>&nbsp; Creating safe, sustainable, reliable, and convenient connections to buses, light rail, and the streetcar is a primary focus of our climate response. Transit offers the best sustainable option for longer trips and will become even more convenient as new light rail services launch and bus services are redeployed to better get you where you want to go.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
