On Tuesday, March 3, transportation coordinators from across Seattle gathered for our 2026 Insider Insights event to celebrate the close of the 2025 Program Report cycle and recognize the incredible work of Employee and Building Transportation Coordinators.
The morning began with a presentation from Commute Seattle Program Director Zarina Infante, who shared key insights from citywide Program Report data, highlighting trends across industries and neighborhoods. Attendees gained a deeper understanding of how commute programs are changing, and the collective impact coordinators are making across the city.
We also took time to recognize several Transportation Coordinators whose program reports stood out for their innovation and impact. Their work demonstrates the important role coordinators play in supporting sustainable commuting and improving access to transportation options.
Guests enjoyed coffee, pastries, and networking with peers and transportation partners at Amazon’s Gatsby space in South Lake Union. It was a great opportunity to connect, reflect on the past year’s accomplishments, and celebrate the people who help make Seattle’s commute programs successful.
Thank you to everyone who joined us and to our event sponsor, Ridepanda, for helping make the morning possible!
