Project Agreement # N/A Financial Partners City of Tukwila, Westfield (Southcenter Mall) Project scope summary (based on original -;grant: application): The Tukwila Transit Center project will eliminate transit inefficiencies, safety problems and expand and replace the existing, inadequate transit stops located at the intersection of Andover Park West and Baker Boulevard. The improvements will create a coordinated, high quality bus facility to accommodate current and future passenger demands, promote transit ridership, provide expanded capacity for transit service (King County Metro, future Sound Transit Express and Rapid Ride F- Line), and improve passenger and business safety and security. The combination of all improvements will enable the Tukwila Transit Center to go beyond addressing existing deficiencies, creating a forward - looking manifestation of the vibrant pedestrian- oriented urban environment envisioned for the Tukwila Urban Center. The Transit Center will link together the redeveloped Southcenter Mall and the future Tukwila Urban Center Core along Baker Boulevard. The Transit Center will create a gateway to the city for transit riders and to the adjacent districts for pedestrians. Efficient transit routing will improve transit service and support the future Rapid Ride F -line, connecting four designated urban centers: Burien, SeaTac, Tukwila, and Renton. The site's location at Andover Park West and Baker Boulevard is the heart of Tukwila's designated Urban Center, one of the Puget Sound Region's core cities.

Project Summary 2011 -2013 Regional Mobility Grants Project Title Tukwila Urban Center — Transit Center Lead Agency City of Tukwila Total Dollar Amount of Grant Request $4,735,000 Total Dollar Amount of Project $7,527,000 Project Manager Cyndy Knighton Senior Engineer Project Financial Partners City of Tukwila Westfield (Southcenter Mall) Summarize the problem in relation to both the local public transportation system and the broader regional transportation system (include the location and the specific congested corridor or situation). Current Metro bus routes must make out of direction travel to serve the the Tukwila Transit Center (Southcenter Mall). A full service on- street transit center with mirrored stops for bi- directional service must be built in Tukwila to support efficient BRT operation as well as improve safety and operation of standard transit service. Metro has increased frequencies of the two major service routes: Route 140 (future Rapid Ride F -line) and Route 150 with 15 minutes headways but not expanded the capital facilities to support these service commitments. The 3,000 daily customers who use the facility do not have sufficient area to stand or sit without encroaching on adjacent private property due to the substandard facility. Only two standard Metro shelters provide inadequate cover for existing bus patrons. The Rapid Ride F -Line, which will connect Sound Transit's LINK and Sounder /AMTRAK stations in Tukwila to the Renton and Burien Park and Ride lots will begin service in 2013 and will connect to the major trunk route (Rt 150) in South King County at the Tukwila Transit Center. An improved Tukwila Transit Center is needed to provide a facility that will support the BRT which in turn will provide a frequent transportation alternative to the congested 14051SR 518 corridor as well as provide an improved connectivity and efficiency point for bus routes between Seattle and all of South King County. Summarize how the proposed grant project addresses the problem. The Tukwila Transit Center project will eliminate transit inefficiencies, safety problems and expand and replace the existing, inadequate transit stops located at the intersection of Andover Park West and Baker Boulevard. The improvements will create a coordinated, high quality bus facility to accommodate current and future passenger demands, promote transit ridership, provide expanded capacity for transit service (King County Metro, future Sound Transit Express and Rapid Ride F- Line), and improve passenger and business safety and security.

Project Description (one page) 2011 -2013 Regional Mobility Grants The Tukwila Transit Center project will replace the existing, inadequate transit stops located near the intersection of Andover Park West and Baker Boulevard in the City of Tukwila with an expanded, high quality Transit Center to accommodate current and future passenger demands, promote transit ridership, provide expanded capacity for transit service include King County Metro's Rapid Ride F -line (BRT) and future Sound Transit Express, and improve passenger and business safety and security. Work will include construction of: 1. New northbound and southbound stops and bus bays along Andover Park West. The existing in -line and pull -out stops in the northbound and southbound directions will be replaced by 2 -bay and 3 -bay stops. 2. A new curbside stop to replace the existing stop on Baker Boulevard (eastbound direction). 3. BRT electronic "real time" signage and ORCA/ticketing system as well as other route and transit system signage. 4. Enlarged passenger shelters and passenger amenities for all stops. 5. Enhanced lighting and other treatments to improve rider safety, security, and comfort using Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) principles. 6. New security systems (emergency call station and potentially closed circuit television) to further improve rider safety. 7. Landscaping and other treatments to reduce impacts between the transit zones and neighboring properties. 8. Increased sidewalk area and improved accessibility for waiting and mobility at the Andover Park West/Baker Boulevard intersection to support safe and efficient pedestrian movements, and mitigate current pedestrian safety issues. The project has been designed to coordinate with a recent expansion of the Southcenter shopping mall immediately to the west of the site, and will promote safe and efficient pedestrian movements to /from that location. The project is also designed to be integrated with the future redevelopment of Tukwila's Urban Center Core to the east of the site, and is a necessary component of meeting travel demand management requirements for the Tukwila Urban Center as a whole. The Tukwila Transit Center has been designed to accommodate the Rapid Ride F -line, scheduled for implementation in September 2013, and is considered critical to the success of that BRT route. The purpose of the Tukwila Transit Center is two -fold. First, the development of the Tukwila Transit Center will directly address the issues noted above with respect to the current transit stops. Second, the Tukwila Transit Center will be a first step towards implementing the future envisioned for the Tukwila Urban Center of a vibrant, pedestrian- oriented live /work/play urban core, setting the standard for quality redevelopment and catalyzing implementation of the larger vision. • Transit zones will be expanded in length and width, providing ample area for transit operations and waiting passengers. These improvements will enable accommodation of anticipated growth for the foreseeable future, including the future Rapid Ride F -line. • Pedestrian safety and convenience will be considerably enhanced. The walk distance for riders transferring between routes at the northbound and southbound stops will be reduced by 300 feet. The designated crosswalks will be located in the direct line of travel between the two stops, substantially reducing the motivation to jaywalk. Enhanced pedestrian crossing facilities at the Andover Park West/Baker Boulevard intersection will further improve pedestrian safety and convenience. • Crime and safety concerns will be addressed through improved lighting, implementation of security technologies, removal of problematic items such as the existing payphones, incorporation of shelter and landscape design that does not impede visibility, and creation of an attractive and easily maintainable waiting environment. These design treatments will be complemented by increased cooperative enforcement by Tukwila and Metro Transit police. • The Transit Center boundaries will be clearly defined with landscaping and a low, attractive fence marking the edge between public and private property. This buffer will enhance the waiting environment while channeling transit riders to designated waiting areas and pedestrian paths. • Two shelters will be provided per bus bay along with ample individual seating. Together, high quality new shelters, passenger amenities, and landscaping will significantly increase the comfort of waiting passengers, encouraging transit use by new and existing riders. 4.

LOS C to LOS F, depending on location within the larger corridor Describe the congestion problems your proposal addresses. The explanation should relate the project to both the public transportation system and the broader regional transportation system and should clearly demonstrate the connection between the problem and your proposal. The future Rapid Ride F -line project, which is scheduled to begin revenue service in September 2013 will provide a parallel route and a transportation alternative in the congested SR 518/1 -405 and 1 -5 corridors. The improvements that accompany the implementation of the Rapid Ride F -line service will reduce the duration of each bus trip by seven minutes in each direction. Service will increase to all -day two -way frequency, further reducing average passenger wait time. The route links regional transportation facilities — Sound Transit's Link and Sounder /AMTRAK facilities in Tukwila and beyond Tukwila to Burien's and Renton's transit facilities. The BRT route will connect with the Seattle South King County trunk line at this Transit Center that acts also as the transfer point between north south and east west transit service. 1 -5 and I- 405 /SR 518 corridors are part of the National Highway System, as well as Highways of Statewide Significance. They are also listed as T -1 and T -2 in the Freight and Goods Transportation System. (Washington State Highway System Plan (2007- 2026.) The State's Highway System Plan has recommendations in the following adjacent areas due to deficiencies and congestion:1 -5 from milepost 139.5- 154.53 is a congested corridor with a $130.8 million Tier 111 improvement; 1-405 from milepost 0 -4, is a heavily congested corridor with mobility deficiencies and several major congested interchanges, with a $1.2 billion Tier III improvement; SR518, milepost 0 -3.42, is a congested corridor with mobility, safety and operational deficiencies with a $6 million Tier 1 improvement; SR 518 from milepost 3.42 -3.43 is a congested corridor with mobility and safety deficiencies with a $7 million Tier III improvement; and SR 518 from milepost 2.49 -2.5 has mobility and operational deficiencies with a $118 million Tier 111 improvement. Rapid Ride seeks to complement the region's fixed -route and high capacity transit network by providing intermediate capacity transportation in corridors that are either: 1) not identified for service by the region's light rail network in the regional long range plan, or 2) identified for potential light rail extensions in long range plans, but not for consideration as a near -term alternative for more than a decade. Capital improvements will provide a travel time benefit for Rapid Ride buses; creating a fast, frequent and more reliable transit service in the congested SR 518/1405 corridor. A focus on Bus Rapid Transit in this corridor will address many of the issues that currently impede transit travel along the corridor. • Transit delay caused by traffic congestion, which if mitigated, can make transit a more competitive and viable alternative to the SOV; • Opportunity to improve travel times through routing and service design improvements as well as transit priority measures; • High ridership already exists (15,300 weekday boardings in and within 1/2 mile of the corridor) and is expected to grow as the corridor becomes more dense and the Urban Centers along this corridor develop; • The corridor has opportunities for connectivity with other transit routes including RapidRide, Sound Transit Link light rail and Commuter Rail, and the region's bicycle trail network; • Unique branding and improved facilities can improve public perceptions of transit; and • Higher transit service supports local land use goals that call for a dramatic increase in transit mode share and more transit and pedestrian oriented development. Page 1 of 1 7. System Integration (two pages max) 2011 -2013 Regional Mobility Grants Transit facilities necessary to accommodate the RapidRide F Line, a bus rapid transit (BRT) project, is the focus of this grant application. Ridership projections are that RapidRide F line will serve over 1.5 million passengers after the first five years of operation. Metro has identified the following elements of RapidRide that will set it apart from other Metro service: • Transit stations at high ridership and high - volume transfer points along a route with real -time bus arrival information, with enhanced shelters that share common elements throughout the RapidRide network; • 10- minute frequency during peak hours and 15- minute frequency or better on weekdays; and, • A definitive brand that is identifiable and unique, a distinctive name for each RapidRide line, common elements among RapidRide bus zones, and marketing material that represents RapidRide as a new and unique service`, set apart from other Metro service. The planned BRT route will connect four core cities — Burien, Renton, SeaTac and Tukwila, as shown in Map 2. All four cities are designated regional growth centers by the Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC) as part of Vision 2040. 22% of the region's population and employment growth is expected to be concentrated within these and the other 10 core cities, with direct access to high capacity transit and a range of land uses including parks, retail, and open space. The City of Burien is currently home to over 30,000 residents and 15,000 jobs. The City of SeaTac is home to over 25,000 residents, and is a major center of employment, driven largely by the Seattle- Tacoma International Airport, and over 30,000 jobs. The City of Tukwila has two regional centers, the North Tukwila Manufacturing Center and the Tukwila Urban Center, which includes the Southcenter mall. Nearly 35,000 jobs are located in these two centers and over 17,000 people live in the City of Tukwila. The City of Renton is home to over 80,000 residents and 40,000 jobs. The primary transit route that currently operates between Burien and Renton is Route 140. Route 140 provides over 670,000 trips annually and over 3,000 boardings daily. This highly used, frequent service will be improved in 2013 to become RapidRide F line. The cities of Burien, Tukwila and Renton provide a strong base of employment and housing for the RapidRide F line, which will travel along this same alignment and provide more frequent and reliable service in this corridor. The Tukwila Transit Center provides a direct connection to the main South King County /Seattle trunk line the Metro 150. Transit Mobility Opportunities The Burien- Renton corridor has many transit mobility opportunities that can be met with proposed RapidRide service. Transit travel time can be reduced to the benefit of existing and potential ridership. Travel time, a primary driver of transit ridership growth, can be reduced through implementation of better service design, with more direct service, less frequent stops, Transit Signal Priority (TSP) and traffic channelization improvements. High ridership already exists. Over 15,300 weekday boardings along the proposed BRT corridor are forecast. With improvements to frequency and the passenger experience, this ridership number is the expectation in growth after the first five years of RapidRide operations. Connectivity RapidRide F Line will provide connections to major destinations and between modes. The corridor provides a key connection between four major centers. Burien, Tukwila, Sea -Tac and Renton, which are all identified as regional growth centers by the Puget Sound Regional Council. In addition, major transit facilities at Tukwila Southcenter is a major retail and employment center in the corridor. In addition, the Sea -Tac International Airport, located just south of the corridor, is a major attraction for employment and residents throughout the region. Intermodal connections. The RapidRide F Line will improve intermodal connections as well as connections between transit providers. Connections will be provided: - To Sound Transit Link Light Rail at the Tukwila International Boulevard Station and to Sound Transit Sounder commuter and AMTRAK interregional rail at Tukwila Station. Page 1 of 2 7. System Integration (two pages max) 2011 -2013 Regional Mobility Grants - To RapidRide A Line at the Tukwila International Boulevard Station - To park and ride facilities at Burien, Renton, Tukwila International Boulevard and Tukwila Longacres Transit Centers. - To transfer points at all four transit centers including the Tukwila Transit Center at Southcenter Mall which serves the main transit trunk route - 150 - between Seattle and South King County. - To several bicycle and pedestrian connections including the Cedar River Trail, the Green River Trail and the Interurban Trail, increasing the attractiveness of connections between bicycle, pedestrian and bus. RapidRide buses will ease bus and bike connections by featuring bike racks that accommodate three bikes. Burien - The Burien Transit Center, at the west end of the Rapid Ride F line corridor, is served by 11 Metro routes and one Sound Transit Route. Five routes provide all day connections to destinations such as downtown Seattle, Des Moines, Highline Medical Center, Auburn and Kent. Tukwila - At Tukwila International Boulevard Link light rail station, connections to Sound Transit Link light rail to downtown Seattle and Sea -Tac International Airport are provided and riders will also be able to connect to the RapidRide A Line with service between Tukwila and Federal Way. At Southcenter, a major retail and employment center, five routes meet at an on- street transfer center, providing a connection to Southcenter mall and destinations including West Seattle and downtown Seattle and connections to neighborhoods. Tukwila Station, just east of Southcenter, is served by Sounder commuter rail and Amtrak inter - regional rail service. SeaTac - Through SeaTac, one Metro route and one Sound Transit route will travel the same segment as the F Line on 154th Street between Tukwila Boulevard and Des Moines Memorial Road. These routes provide connections to the Sea -Tac Airport and West Seattle as well as to Kent and Auburn. Renton - Multiple routes in Renton overlap Route 140 for a short distance between Renton Transit Center and the South Renton Park and Ride, along Rainier Avenue South and Grady Way. South Renton Park - and -Ride is at 100% of capacity on an average weekday. The Renton Transit Center will be the eastern most portion of the Rapid Ride F line corridor and is served by 15 routes providing connections to destinations including downtown Seattle, Rainier Beach, Kent, University District, Bellevue and Overlake. There is existing transit infrastructure in the corridor including existing passenger facilities including shelters throughout the proposed alignment. The City of Renton and King County Metro are coordinating construction of BAT (business access transit) lanes along a portion of Rainier Avenue South due to high transit volumes. The Rainier Avenue South corridor will incorporate BAT lanes between South 2nd Street and SW Grady Way. Additionally, Rainier Avenue South will have improved sidewalks, transit stops, and an eastbound transit queue jump at South 3rd Street. Additional improvements are planned improvements RapidRide F Line corridor, discussed below, including significant improvements to roadways and passenger facilities. RapidRide is expected to improve both travel times and frequency in the Burien- Renton corridor. Current peak - period travel time along the corridor ranges from 45 to 50 minutes. Improvements are expected to reduce travel time by up to seven minutes in each direction.Segments of the corridor will see a greater increase in passenger capacity over the baseline alternative. Headways of 10 minutes or less, or six one -way transit trips per hour, are planned during the peak. In the corridor, this improvement is equivalent to nearly a 65% improvement in transit service that travels between Burien, Sea -Tac, Tukwila and Renton. Tukwila's urban center must have a transit facility to serve the proposed growth in employment and population allocated by the PSRC. Rregional and local transportation and land use plans identify the Transit Center as the location for focused growth and transportation service. In cooperation with Washington State and its guidelines, the City has adopted a Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) Plan. As one element of its effort to address congestion and air quality, Tukwila has voluntarily created a plan for and,designated a GTEC for the Tukwila Urban Center, with this Transit Center as tool for solving congestion and serving as a transportation solution. The City of Tukwila has been focused and targeted in its land use, transportation planning and regulatory decision making. The expansion of the Southcenter Mall was conditioned such that ROW and funding were provided for the Transit Center and a TDM plan was created that depends upon improvements to the Transit Center. Tukwila's plans and decisions are in line with state, regional and local goals for addressing population and job growth. Providing transit facilities so that anticipated growth and existing demand can be met and congestion reduced and air quality improved is the goal of this proposal. Tukwila has established partnerships with its businesses through its CTR plan and programs and approved transportation demand management plans. Tukwila has established partnerships with its transit providers through funding and service commitments on capital improvements. Page 2 of 2 Washington State �1 Department of Transportation 8. Financial Plan Description 2011 -2013 Regional Mobility Grants Describe the funds you are providing to the project. (If applicable, attach documentation) $1,481,000 City of Tukwila General Fund $500,000 Westfield Corporation $468,000 Transit Oriented Development Federal Appropriation $2,449,000 Cash Contribution $343,000 ROW Dedication Value from Westfield Corporation $2,792,000 Total Matching Funds (37% match) Describe the contributions of any financial partners on the project. (For all financial partners a letter of concurrence, award letter or other financial document from the organization must be included.) The Westfield Corporation has provided $500,000 in cash and land dedication valued at $343,000 toward this project as a mitigation measure offsetting their parking variance. With the recent major expansion of Southcenter Mall, less parking than City code requires was approved with the mitigation payment and land dedication. Westfield Corporation and the City of Tukwila believe that less parking is required with a high - quality transit facility adjacent to the mall. The following letter from Westfield documents their continued support for this project. Describe any undocumented financial contributions or other unique aspects of your financial plan. While it is most effective and preferred that the Tukwila Transit Center be constructed in a complete unit, phasing construction is an option should incomplete funding be presented. Phase 1, the west side of Andover Park West (southbound direction) can be constructed first on the existing ROW. Travel time benefits for the Route 156 will not be realized and the effectiveness of the Rapid Ride F -line would be reduced due to the additional travel time of 3 minutes per each westbound trip. Phase 2 on the east side of Andover Park West and the ancillary stop on the south side of Baker Boulevard could be constructed at a later date. Design of the full Tukwila Transit Center will be completed independent of available construction funds, making the full, or partial, project shovel -ready in 2011. Please describe how you plan to maintain funding for the service or facility after Regional Mobility Grant funding expires. The City of Tukwila and King County Metro jointly maintain the existing transit zone that will become the Tukwila Transit Center. This agreement will remain in force and labor will continue to be funded by general operating dollars. Further, King County Metro has the authority (granted by the Washington State Legislature in 2009) to levy additional property taxes up to 7.5 cents per 1,000 dollars of assessed value. The legislation specified specific uses for some of the levy funds but the remainder of the tax revenue can be spent on any transit related expenditure. The majority of those funds are the primary funding source for the Rapid Ride lines. A local option sales tax in King County is specific to transit, thereby isolating transit expenditures from competing King County financial needs. Operation of the F -line will cost approximately $5,400,000 annually (in 2010 numbers) which represents 0.009% of Metro's $586,000,000 operating and maintenance budget Page 1 of 1 CITY OF TUKWILA CAPITAL PROJECT SUMMARY 2010 to 2015 PROJECT: Tukwila Urban Center - Transit Center LINE ITEM: 104.02.595. . .22 PROJECT NO. 90610402 DESCRIPTION: Design and construct a transit center for the Tukwila Urban Center (TUC). High transit ridership and bus operations warrant conversion of the existing bus stops on Andover Park West JUSTIFICATION: to a transit center. The current facilities are inadequate in size and location to serve Metro operations and transit riders. City policy encourages the use of transit, and mitigation dollars and parking supply decisions have been made based upon the expected improvements to the transit center. STATUS: Design began in 2006. Construction dependent on funding. The west side of Andover Park West is scheduled to coincide with the Transit Center and the east side of Andover Park West is in the beyond years. MAINT. IMPACT: Minimal to moderate, depends on final maintenance agreement with King County Metro. TOD grant of $577,651.00. Mitigation from Westfield S/C Mali of $500,000 for parking variance.

Providing key transit and pedestrian improvements and linking up the Sounder Commuter Rail Station and the Link Light Rail station with the urban core will benefit Westfield as well as other businesses in the area. Westfield Southcenter is a super - regional shopping center and major employment destination located in Tukwila. Westfield just completed a $240 million expansion that added approximately 400,000 square feet of retail shops, dining and entertainment uses for a total of 1.7 million square feet. Our expansion included a significant investment in the Tukwila Transit Center, including a contribution of $500,000 towards its design & construction and a provision of land for its expansion. A grant for its construction will complement the private dollars that Westfield is investing alongside King County and Tukwila public investments, to get this important project done. The City of Tukwila is a great place to do business. We support the City's efforts to construct the Tukwila Transit Center.

Explain any assumptions used to calculate the annual reductions in vehicle trips and vehicle miles traveled. (Include justification for ridership or utilization assumptions; site examples and documentation.) The benefits of the Tukwila Transit Center cannot be overstated. Beyond the economic and redevelopment impacts, the benefits to riders -- especially choice riders -- is exceptional. System efficiency is benefitted by both accommodating for in- direction travel for existing routes but also by providing the necessary facilities for one of the four key Rapid Ride stations for the future F -line route. The existing facility is already a major transfer point, but with construction of the Tukwila Transit Center, this site will become a major transit hub in South King County. The Tukwila Transit Center is key to the success of the F -line and will provide the needed connections between Sounder /Amtrak, LINK light rail, Metro Route 150, and the urban centers of Burien, SeaTac, Tukwila and Renton.

The Tukwila Transit Center is located along King County Metro's planned RapidRide F Line and has been identified as a future station location. The RapidRide F Line will feature high frequency service (every 10 to 15 minutes) during most hours of the day, faster boarding by using low -floor articulated hybrid buses with three doors, faster service by spacing stops farther apart, improved bus stop facilities and security, a proof of payment fare system with on -board fare inspection, and special branding. The RapidRide F Line will provide service between the Burien Transit Center and the Renton Transit Center via Tukwila Transit Center. It will provide connections to other Metro routes as well as Sound Transits Commuter and Light Rail services. RapidRide F Line is scheduled to be implemented in 2013. The Tukwila Transit Center is an important step towards Tukwila implementing its vision and strategy that meets the community needs today, while also building a foundation for the future. The Tukwila Transit Center project is consistent with King County's transit plans and policies.

As a key service provider in this area, Sound Transit operations are linked to this transit center via bus, pedestrian and bicycle facilities. As our operations grow so will the needs of this facility which is already substandard and inefficient. Financial support for transit facilities in one of the region's urban centers is key transportation goal and financial commitment that we support. The Tukwila Transit Center serves the Tukwila urban center and acts as the regional transit hub for 2200 daily customers (Perteet, 2004.) This facility is the central transit facility in one of the three South King County urban centers. It is currently served by Metro Route 140, a key connector that will in time be replaced by Metro's Rapid Ride system (Line F) thereby linking Sound Transit's commuter rail and light rail systems and the WSDOT /AMTRAK partnership with Seattle Tacoma International Airport and vice versa. Sound Transit supports this project because it improves local and regional mobility and benefits the city of Tukwila as well as the Puget Sound region.

RCW 70.235.070 requires project "consistency" with the state Greenhouse Gas emission limits, and Vehicle Mile Traveled reduction benchmarks found in RCW 47.01.440. Please describe how your proposed proiect is consistent with RCW 70.235.070. The Tukwila Transit Center provides an attractive, efficient, safe alternative to SOV drivers along the SR 518, 1 -405 corridors and beyond. Travel time and routing efficiencies for existing transit routes as well as a facility supporting the future Rapid Ride F -line go a long way in reducing green house gases and vehicle emissions, especially when factoring in the hybrid vehicles that are used by Rapid Ride. The potential reduction of over 22 million vehicle miles traveled in South King County by Year 4 of operation is a notable achievement consistent with the directives of RCW 70.235.070 and 47.01.440.
