ISSUE

BACKGROUND
The S 144th Street Bridge Sidewalks Project will widen the existing pedestrian pathway on the bridge from three feet to six
feet with a barrier to separate automobile and pedestrian traffic. It will also make the sidewalks ADA accessible.
This project is of high importance to the City and the Tukwila School District as it is a primary route for students to access
Foster High School and Showalter Middle School students. The Tukwila School Board has reached out to the City to express
their support of this project and they will be reaching out to State Representatives this year to request funding for this project.
DISCUSSION
On April 21, 2022, the City's screening form was approved by PSRC to apply for STP funds for the S 144th Street Bridge
Sidewalks project. The STP program is a federal funding source to preserve and improve highway, bridge and tunnel project
conditions on any public road, and pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure The deadline to apply for funding is April 29, 2022.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The City is requesting $475,750 from PSRC's STP grant to fund the design of the S 144th Street Bridge Sidewalks project.
This grant requires a 13.5% local City match of $74,250. Traffic Impact Fees (TIF) can be used to fund the project match. A
portion of the project match is allocated in the 2023 CIP budget, and the remaining match will be requested as part of the
2023-2024 biennium budget process. If accepted, the grant funds would be available to the City starting October 1, 2024.
