	A New Seattle Monorail: Background and Issues
		A detailed study of the Seattle Monorail’s first six month’s of operation was made to appraise the effectiveness of the monorail as a metropolitan rapid transit facility.[6] Several efforts were initiated during the last three decades to either extend the Monorail or build a separate elevated transit system.
		During the period 1969-71 Seattle was one of five medium-sized cities selected for study by the Center Cities Transportation Project.[7][8] The study recommended that Seattle seek a grant to investigate the feasibility of a "people-mover-pedestrianway system".
		The system, called Seattle Central Alley Transit (SCAT), was the subject of a plan presented to the State legislature.[10] In a second phase, it was proposed that the private sector would implement a regional system in partnership with the city, county, state, and federal governments.
