In November 2019, the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) presented findings from the SR 518 Corridor Planning Study to the Highline Forum in Des Moines, WA. The study, mandated by a 2017 legislative proviso and funded with $500,000 from the legislature plus an additional $400,000 from the Port of Seattle, examined traffic conditions and improvement alternatives along the SR 518 corridor near Sea-Tac Airport.

The Regional Transportation Plan — 2018 is a draft planning document produced by the Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC) in May 2018, outlining the regional transportation vision and investment priorities for the greater Puget Sound area, including King, Pierce, Snohomish, and Kitsap counties. Funded in part by federal transportation agencies and Washington State, the plan addresses multimodal transportation networks including roads, transit, and non-motorized travel.

The Puget Sound Regional Council's 2018 Regional Transportation Plan outlines how the central Puget Sound region, which has seen rapid population and job growth since 2010, intends to manage an additional one million residents by 2040. The plan details major investments across highway, transit, rail, ferry, bicycle, and pedestrian systems to reduce traffic congestion and better connect housing, employment centers, and freight hubs. It aims to provide equitable access to the region's natural, cultural, and recreational assets while keeping the transportation system sustainable through projected growth.

This 2018 Port of Seattle briefing outlines near-term traffic mitigation strategies for Sea-Tac Airport's increasingly congested roadway system, which was originally designed for 5 million annual passengers but now handles far greater volumes. Key measures include a Traffic Mitigation Plan that restricts access to southbound airport freeways during peak periods, and a new TNC 'Re-Match' program that allows rideshare drivers who have just dropped off passengers to immediately pick up new ones without returning to the remote 160th Street holding lot. The Re-Match pilot reduced passenger wait times by one-third and eliminated an estimated 30,000 deadheading trips in December 2017, while also reducing expressway congestion near the terminal.

This is Amendment No. 3 to a 2005 Interlocal Agreement between the Port of Seattle and the City of SeaTac, entered into on February 16, 2006, governing transportation planning and funding around Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. The amendment updates project management responsibilities and budget allocations for capital improvement projects, including the South Access roadway, SR 518 improvements, and the South Link Project on 28th Ave. S., funded through a local parking tax. It establishes rules for how parking tax revenues are divided among projects and outlines corrective actions if actual revenues fall short of forecasts.
