Subj:2012/13Six Year Transportation Improvement Program
Attached for the Planning Commissions consideration is the current Six Year
Transportation Improvement Program (TIP), which must be updated annually.
The City is required to identify a six year list of planned transportation projects by
Section 35.77.010 RCW. This list does not have to be fiscally constrained (afunding
source secured, obligated, or identified), but is rather a simple list of planned projects.
The City’s Transportation Improvement Program will contain projects that are fiscally
constrained (a funding source identified). These projects will be included in the
Regional Transportation Improvement Program maintained by our Regional
Transportation Planning Organization, the Thurston Regional Planning Council. The
City works with TRPC to identify those projects that are regionally significant for
inclusion in the Regional TIP. Again, these projects have to be fiscally constrained (not
actually funded, but a funding source identified).
Certain projects from the Regional TIP become part of the Statewide Transportation
Improvement Program (STIP). Those projects that are fiscally constrained and are
regionally significant (which includes any State Routes) are included in the STIP and
must be in order to receive State or Federal Funds.
Since there was no transportation construction project in the past year, and conditions
have not significantly changed, the Yelm Transportation Committee believes it is
appropriate to re-adopt the same project list as 2011for the upcoming six year cycle.
Already on the local TIP as well as the Regional and Statewide TIP isthe Mosman
Corridor project.
