BACKGROUND WSDOT is currently accepting applications to fund infrastructure improvements and/or local transportation safety programs (education and encouragement activities) serving children in kindergarten through 12th grade that will improve safety and/or increase the number of children walking and biking to school. Tukwila has been successful in applying for and receiving funding through the Safe Routes to School Program for construction of a trail, sidewalks, and intersection modification/traffic calming improvements for Cascade View Elementary; and for construction of sidewalks and associated improvements along S 150th St, connecting to Thorndyke Elementary. The opportunity to apply for Safe Routes to School funding occurs every other year; applications for this round of funding are due April 27, 2018. DISCUSSION Public Works and Community Development staff have met to review the school Walk Route Maps, sidewalk prioritization list, and collision information provided by WSDOT, to identify projects listed below which are likely to score well against the project criteria. • 46th Ave South sidewalk and crossing improvements at the intersection with S 144th St. • Macadam Rd S sidewalk completion and crossing improvements to bus stops; from South 144th St to South 150th St. • S 144th St Bridge — Sidewalks • S 152nd St sidewalks from Tukwila International Blvd to 42nd Ave S. Project scoring is based on factors including collision history at the target location; opportunities to fill in gaps in the nonmotorized transportation network; opportunities to improve economic development, access to community services and/ job opportunities; equity and social justice factors; comparison of project cost to population density in an area; and the effectiveness of the proposed improvements to increase pedestrian and bicyclist safety. Staff is proposing to submit a grant application for one of the projects listed above. The S 144th St Bridge - Sidewalks Project was previously submitted for funding through this program and was not successful. Staff is planning to discuss the previous application with WSDOT to determine whether it should be submitted again. For the other projects, staff is currently looking 27 INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 2 in to each one to determine whether the City has sufficient information, including cost estimates, for an adequate application for this round of funding. FINANCIAL IMPACT There is no match requirement, but preference is given to projects with match. RECOMMENDATION. Authorize the submittal of a grant application to the WSDOT for Safe Routes to School funding. ATTACHMENTS 1. 2018 Pedestrian and Bicycle and Safe Routes to School Application for Funding 2.
