Jim Haggerton, Mayor BACKGROUND The City implements an Annual Overlay Repair Program that repairs and resurfaces a list of selected streets each year. The 2009 Overlay Repair Program is currently under design, with construction to occur this summer. The City recently adopted a Walk Roll Plan that includes a map of Bicycle Friendly Routes. Three street segments in this year's Overlay Repair Program (listed below) are on streets identified on the Bicycle Friendly Routes map. 1) S 112 Street (Tukwila International Blvd (TIB) to the Duwamish River) 2) S 115 Street (East Marginal Way to 42n Ave S) 3) East Marginal Way S (S 126 Street to the SR 599 Bridge) These three segments represent the first construction projects that the City would be able to implement from the recommendations listed in the Walk and Roll Plan. Adding bike lanes into the Annual Overlay Repair Program is a cost effective way to begin to build a network of truly Bicycle Friendly Routes and is an example of implementation of Complete Streets principles. ANALYSIS Preliminary channelization plans have been prepared that include striped bike lanes on the three street segments listed above. Some additional work and /or coordination will be required to include the proposed bike lanes as part of the 2009 Overlay Repair Program. The additional work would include: 1) S 112 Street: The curb, gutter, sidewalk, and curb radius on the NW corner of S 112 St and TIB would need to be relocated and reconstructed to accommodate bike lanes. 2) S 115 St would require approximately 10 feet of widening to accommodate bike lanes (from East Marginal Way to S 114 St only). This work would likely require a Shoreline Permit due to the proximity to the river.

The majority of the project segment ranges between 43 and 44 feet in width and includes curb, gutter and sidewalk on both sides of the street. This section of roadway could be re- striped with one travel lane in each direction, a center turn lane, and bike lanes. There are currently a few areas along the segment where on- street parking is allowed, but would have to be prohibited if bike lanes were installed. The first two segments have minimal impact on adjoining businesses /residents. Staff proposes the following activities in preparation for removal of on- street parking and the addition of bike lanes to the third segment, East Marginal Way S: Mail notices to property owners and tenants /businesses of plans to remove on- street parking along East Marginal Way S. Meet with businesses /property owners that have nonconforming off street parking to discuss options. Nonconforming off street parking applies to those properties and businesses which were developed or were in operation prior to adoption of Tukwila's off street parking and loading regulations. Some of the occupants of the properties along this street segment may rely on on- street parking to meet their parking needs. Have CTR Coordinator work with the CTR- affected employers within the corridor, including King County Metro and Group Health, to mitigate any impacts to employee parking. RECOMMENDATION Authorize staff to initiate outreach efforts for removal of on- street parking and process a design supplement with KPG for the additional restriping bike lane design (estimated to be under $25,000).
