Historical Note
The five-member Transit Commission was established in 1952 to replace the Seattle Transportation Commission as the administrator of the Seattle Transit System. The Transit Commission was abolished in 1971 when the Transit System was taken over by the newly formed Seattle Department of Transportation. Two years later, jurisdiction was transferred to Metro.
