BACKGROUND
In May 2012 the City submitted an application to PSRC in response to a statewide Call for Projects to award Federal grant

phase which includes bicycle facilities on the corridor of East Marginal Way S /Boeing Access Rd /Airport Way S from SR 599
to the north City limits and a request for funds for the construction phase. PSRC did not fund the construction phase initially,
however in October of 2013 PSRC approved the construction grant funding as a separate act. The City was awarded the
amount of $482,047 to construct the project.
DISCUSSION
Acceptance of the awarded Federal grant will enable the City to proceed with construction phase of the Tukwila MIC Smart
Street Non - Motorized Project.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The total estimated project cost for bicycle facilities, including construction, submitted with the initial grant application was
$678,480.00. A city match of 13.5% is required for this project.

The Honorable Jim Haggerton, Mayor
City of Tukwila
6200 Southcenter Blvd
Tukwila, WA 98188
Dear Mayor Haggerton:
On behalf of the Puget Sound Regional Council, congratulations on the selection of the Tukwila
Manufacturing Industrial Center "Smart Street" Non Motorized Project to receive $482,047 in
federal transportation funding.
This project was on a prioritized contingency list of projects that are eligible to receive additional
funding that becomes available before the next selection process. Funding recently became
available through PSRC's project tracking program, and your project was next on the list to
receive these funds.
PSRC's project selection process is rigorous and helps identify the highest priority projects that
will improve local and regional mobility and help achieve our long -range regional transportation
plan, Transportation 2040. Final approval by the Governor and federal funding agencies is
expected in early 2014.
Thank you for your leadership and for the excellent work by your staff to help the region achieve a
better transportation system that gets people and goods where they need to go, provides
transportation choices, and helps support a strong economy in the region. We look forward to
continuing to partner with you in the future.
Warm regards,
Bob Drewel
Executive Director
Puget Sound Regional Council
