Gov. Locke’s statement on passage of transportation efficiencies and reforms

“I am pleased by today’s swift passage of long-debated transportation efficiencies and reforms by the state House of Representatives. The provisions in this bill go farther than the recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Commission on Transportation and complement reform bills passed last spring.

“This is a good step to ensure the state Department of Transportation operates more efficiently and saves millions of dollars for state taxpayers. I look forward to working with Democrats and Republicans from the state House and Senate to get Washington moving again.”
