Transportation Demand Management Program
42"d Avenue S Bridge Replacement Project
ISSUE
The Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Program in DCD and Public Works are asking
for approval to apply for federal funding for two individual projects through Puget Sound
Regional Council's (PSRC) 2023-24 project selection process.
BACKGROUND
Transportation Demand Manaqement. In recent years, the TDM Program has received
Climate Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) funding through a partnership with WSDOT, who
provided pass -through funds to the City. WSDOT is not applying for TDM funding for the 2023-
24 project selection process, therefore the City's TDM Program is applying to continue TDM
outreach activities in Tukwila and interested neighboring south King County jurisdictions.
42"d Avenue S Bridge Replacement Project. The 42"d Avenue S Bridge is a fracture -critical
and structurally deficient bridge that needs to be replaced in the foreseeable future. City Council
recently provided a million dollars to start the design of the replacement bridge as grant
applications submitted in 2017 and 2019 for design were unsuccessful. Beginning the design
makesfuture grant applications more competitive.
DISCUSSION
Approximately every two years, Federal Highways Administration (FHWA) funds are made
available through a competitive grant selection process. For FY 20233-2024, $104.1 m is
available for the countywide competitions. Successful grants will be awarded in January 2021
and funds are generally available in October 2022. A match of 13.5% is required for the federal
funds, which can be provided using local monies and other non-federal grants.
Transportation Demand Management. The scope of the proposed $450,000 CMAQ project is
to provide TDM programming and services to residents, commuters and visitors in Tukwila and
south King County. By providing transportation resources and incentives, the project will
encourage people to choose sustainable transportation options such as riding transit, walking,
biking and carpooling.
42"d Avenue S Bridge Replacement Proiect. Design of the replacement bridge will be starting
by summer 2020. The proposed grant would include an additional $1 m for design and $3m for
construction through the STP fund. Additional grants for construction will be pursued through
BRAC.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
Transportation Demand Management. There will be no impact to the general fund from the
TDM project. Local match will be provided by the City's TDM Allocation (formerly called
Commute Trip Reduction) plus any local in -kind funding secured from partnering agencies
should there be any.
42nd Avenue S Bridge Replacement Proiect. A match of $624.3k is required for the $4m
request which will be provided from the funds balance -bond shown on the attached draft CIP
sheet.
RECOMMENDATION
Committee is being asked to approve the request to apply for 2023-24 federal funding through
PSRC's project selection process for Transportation Demand Management and the 42nd Avenue
South Bridge Replacement Project.
