SUMMARY EXPLANATION:

On September 6, 2022 the City of Yakima (City) adopted R-2022-118 and R-2022-119 as required by state statute to update its Six-year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) for submittal to the Washington State Department of Transportation.  The City is amending the Six-year TIP to include the following two funded additional projects:  

 

  • Systemic Pedestrian and Bicyclist Data Collection
  • Systemic Pedestrian Safety Improvements

 

The projects were not on the original TIP because the City was still seeking funding.  Now that funding has been approved, the projects need to be on the TIP. A Public Hearing will be held to consider including the two additional projects in adoption of an amended Resolution approving the Six-year TIP and amending the regional Metropolitan Transportation Plan and Comprehensive Plan Capital Facilities Element.
