We're looking for input on
an amendment to the 2016-2019 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) that proposes
adding one new project and making changes to two projects already in the
program.
The TIP is a
document that identifies projects slated to be constructed during
the upcoming four years. It includes project names and descriptions, the
jurisdiction sponsoring them, funding attached to each project, and where the
funding came from (local, state or federal funds). The TIP is updated throughout
the year as SRTC’s member jurisdictions have projects to add, change or remove
from the program, often as funding becomes available.
The amendment currently under
consideration would make the following changes:
·
Walk Bike Bus Spokane- Transfer $11,800 from the preliminary
engineering phase of this program to a new construction phase to build a
covered bike parking kiosk in the Garland District.
·
Eastern Region Regionwide ADA Project-
Pedestrian Access Upgrades- Increased
total project cost from $1,570,810 to $2,959,750 due to adding more Americans
with Disabilities Act (ADA) locations to be upgraded.
·
US 395/North Spokane Corridor (NSC) Freya
St. Structures- This
new project to the TIP will construct the NSC mainline bridges over Freya Street
and construct the second phase of mainline retaining walls adjacent to the BNSF
railway tracks.
