What public transportation improvements would you like to see come to Newcastle?
I’d like to see a bus come close to Windtree (currently a mile away), a park & ride near the 44th Avenue Northeast interchange of Interstate 405 and light rail on the railroad corridor parallel to I-405 into Bellevue and Renton.

It would be nice to have better cover for our rain and winter wind at the bus stops and waiting areas.
— Jesse Tam
At this moment, I can’t think of one. I think our traffic is doing fine.

A shuttle bus to the golf club for happy hour!

How many Concerts in the Park do you plan to attend this year? One? Two? All? None? Why/why not?
My husband and myself plan to attend all the concerts. It is wonderful to see all ages attend the concerts. Everyone seems to enjoy themselves. They are a treat.
— Paula Spence
Probably none. The music isn’t my style, and I’m so busy doing other things, I really don’t have time.
— Peggy Price
I estimate two because of traveling and many other activities throughout our short summer.
— Jesse Tam
I am planning on attending all of them, as soon as I find out what the dates are. I love the summer concerts — another one of my favorite things to do in Newcastle!

What is your favorite summertime activity in Newcastle?
I love having friends over and doing barbecues. I also love hiking up the Terrace Trail, although I do that year round!
— Jackie Foskett
I do enjoy our trails and hiking with friends and my dog.
— Paula Spence
I like the same things in summer and winter: trail construction, gardening, sewing, arranging music and watching educational shows — especially science and current events.
— Peggy Price
Golfing at the golf course and walking on Newcastle trails.
