The key to realizing the regional strategy established by VISION 2020 and Destination 2030 is to link policies with real outcomes. By determining if planned actions are occurring and whether they are achieving desired results, we can measure progress over time. The information generated by monitoring efforts will help provide the region's decision makers with the knowledge and tools they need to update and refine the region's plans and to make critical choices about its future.

The goal of the Regional Council's new program is to provide policymakers and the public with answers to such questions as:

"How is the region growing and changing over time?"
"How is the region's transportation system running?"
"Are we building the projects, developing the services, and implementing the policies that we said we would?"

Puget Sound Milestones

Milestones mark distance along a journey and record significant events in history. Puget Sound Milestones, the Regional Council's new monitoring series, will investigate the growth and transportation issues and milestones of regional importance through an ongoing series of focused, topical reports, presentations and briefings.
