Washington State Good Roads & Transportation Association

Who we are...

Welcome to the Washington State Good Roads and Transportation Association. Founded in Spokane in 1899, the association promotes and fosters construction, maintenance, and general improvement of good roads and transportation infrastructure throughout the state of Washington. Our membership is diverse with city officials, Department of Transportation employees, private construction contractors, unions, elected officials, retired industry experts, and many others. We are led by an executive committee elected annually by our members, with all other members serving as voting board members. read more history >>>

What we do...

While our membership is diverse, all of our members share the common interest of good roads and transportation systems in Washington. The WSGRTA works to achieve this goal through several important avenues. First, we provide an avenue to share and discuss information with our members concerning legislation, regulation, and taxation affecting transportation via our website, email, and our meetings. We also lend our influence, as sound judgment dictates, to the development of better transportation in this state when necessary. The WSGRTA continually works to educate the public on what transportation means to economic vitality and quality of life, and also to serve as their voice to government communicating their transportation needs. Last, but not least, we work to develop alliances with like-minded organizations and assist local and state agencies in long-range transportation planning.

When we meet...

The WSGRTA meets at least five times per year in person. We have four regular quarterly meetings, normally held in Ellensburg, Washington. One of those meetings is held the evening before our annual Legislative Breakfast held in January in Olympia, Washington. Our fifth event is our Annual Conference and Golf held in September each year.
