BACKGROUND Roadway improvements for 53rd Ave S from S 137th St to S 144th St are in the design phase with KPG, Inc. The project has received $2,141,400.00 in State Transportation Improvement Board (TIB) funding and must meet TIB's minimal roadway design requirements that include sidewalks on both sides of the roadway. The City's Walk and Roll Plan has designated this route to include shared vehicle /bicycle facilities (sharrows). Due to the limited right -of- way (ROW) width of 40 feet on 53rd Ave S and the roadway's topography, fitting the planned roadway improvements within the existing right -of -way is challenging. Staff provided a project update and roadway layout options at the February 16, 2016 Transportation Committee and received support to gauge neighborhood interest in alternate design options. An open house was conducted on March 23, 2016 and four basic roadway design options were presented for discussion. These options were: • Option 1: 13 foot sharrow lanes, no landscape planter, and 5 foot sidewalks. Option 1 would require a total of 40 feet ROW and no additional ROW acquisition. • Option 2: 14 foot sharrow lanes, 5 foot landscape planters, and 5 foot sidewalks. Option 2 would require a total of 51 feet of ROW and 11 feet of additional ROW acquisition. • Option 3: 11 foot travel lanes, 5 foot bike lanes, no landscape planters, and 5 foot sidewalks. Option 3 would require a total of 47 feet of ROW and 7 feet of ROW acquisition. • Option 4: 11 foot travel lanes, 5 foot bike lanes, 5 foot landscape planters, and 5 foot sidewalks. Option 4 would require a total of 55 feet of ROW and 15 feet of ROW acquisition. The 3/23/16 open house revealed that there was not support from property owners to donate additional ROW for bike lanes and Options 3 and 4 were dropped from consideration. There was support for both Options 1 and 2 at the open house, so staff then sent mailers to property owners who had not previously provided input. The mailers requested that the property owners return their choice of roadway design and whether they were willing to donate five feet of property for a landscape strip. Of the 21 responses that the City received, 14 favored Option 1 and 7 favored Option 2. 11PWStore\PW Common§1PW Eng\PROJECTS A- RW & RS Projects153rd Ave S (99110301)\Design\lnfo Memo Design Layout Recommendation 09 -02 -16 gl- bg.docx 53rd Ave S September 2, 2016 Page 2 DISCUSSION Staff, working with KPG, developed a roadway cross- section that considered the direction given by the property owners by eliminating the need for significant ROW acquisition and kept the planned improvements within the available 40 feet of ROW. The proposed new roadway layout includes the following elements: • Two 11.5 foot sharrow lanes • Two 5 foot sidewalks • 2 feet on each side of the roadway for retaining was • A 3 foot planter area on the west side of the roadway to provide room for illumination poles and utilities Staff and KPG will continue to work with property owners on the east side of the roadway that had expressed interest in donating additional property for a landscaped planter. Project design is anticipated to be completed by March 2017 with project construction beginning in May 2017. RECOMMENDATION Information only.
