Project Description1. Project Scope

The Rainier Avenue South Corridor Improvements - Phase 4B project is a logical continuationof previous corridor improvements on Rainier Avenue and will extend construction ofimprovements from S Tobin St to NW 3rd Pl. Improvements include pedestrian improvementsof wider sidewalks with streetscaping, upgraded traffic signal timing and coordination, accessmanagement, installation of a HAWK signal, transit facility upgrades, as well as landscapedbuffers and medians. This project will also construct a segment of the Lake Washington LoopTrail from Airport Way to NW 3rd Pl. Improvements will focus on transit mobility while improvingthe user experience of people commuting to work, shopping in the urban center, or travellingaround town. The previous Phase of 4A (S 3rd St to S Tobin St) included BAT lanes between S3rd St up to S 2nd St which extended BAT lanes that connect to SR 167 and I-405. Theconstruction of Phase 4 was segmented to be proactive with issues surrounding theintersection of the Rainier Ave S/Airport Way, the in-progress Renton Airport Master Plan, andadjacent projects. Design and Right-of-Way of Phase 4 have been proceeding from S 3rd St toNW 3rd Pl.

2. Project Justification, Need, or PurposeRainier Avenue South is a vital principal arterial carrying over 50,000 vehicles per day and is inneed of infrastructure improvements to enhance travel and safety for all modes oftransportation. As a T-2/T-1 truck route, maintaining and/or improving the mobility of freightand goods on Rainier Ave South is a top priority of this corridor as well as the region. Theimportance of this project is in how it supports the aerospace industry cluster and Rentongrowth targets by promoting economic revitalization and sustained urban land use. Theproject enhances regional connections through constructing a segment of the LakeWashington Loop Trail from Airport Way to NW 3rd Pl and improves access to transit inpreparation for future Rapid Ride lines.Rainier Ave South Phase 4B is a heavily travelled segment of the corridor (50,000 vehicles perday) with vehicles entering/exiting the numerous driveways along the corridor. Vehicles arecurrently able to make midblock left-turns to access businesses that result in trafficconfusion and congestion. Since 2014, there have been over 250 collisions, 93 being injuryaccidents and 15 causing severe injury. Narrow sidewalks adjacent to a heavily travelledroadway, insufficient pedestrian-scale illumination and substandard accommodation forpersons with disabilities all contribute to a less than desirable pedestrian environment. The Rainier Ave South Phase 4B project goal is to improve mobility through upgraded trafficsignal timing and coordination, improved traffic safety through better traffic flow and accessmanagement, and improved pedestrian safety through sidewalk widening and additionalstreetscape, a HAWK signal, transit facility upgrades, and installation of landscaped buffersand medians. This corridor serves as a critical route to the Renton Landing shopping centerand the Southport area that is home to over 700,000 sq/ft of office space, 30,000 sq/ft ofretail, a 4 star hotel and an additional 17 acres of land currently under development. The project supports regional connections by improving access and mobility between theRenton regional growth center and connections to regional transportation facilities of I-405,SR 167, SR 900 and Tukwila Sounder Station.

Support for Centers1. Describe the relationship of the project to the center(s) it is intended to support.

Identify the designated regional growth or manufacturing/industrial center(s)and whether or not the project is located within the center or along a corridorconnecting to the center(s).This project supports Renton’s designated regional growth center, industrial, manufacturingand commercial areas, which employ over 50,000 people. Rainier Avenue S is a vital corridorconnecting to/from the adjacent Renton Regional Growth Center to other regional centers,such as Tukwila, Kent/Auburn, Bellevue, and Seattle. The majority of commuters in Rentonhave increased over the years and they are both people who are employed in Renton but liveoutside the City and those who live in Renton but are employed somewhere else. This project continues the needed improvements to maintain or improve transit and freightmobility that are the key priorities for Renton’s regional growth center. This phase of theRainier Avenue S Corridor project is adjacent to the Renton Airport – the 3rd most importantWA airport (economically) generating over $13.6 billion in business revenues in 2018. TheRenton Municipal Airport is a major general aviation airport and a designated Reliever Airportfor SeaTac International Airport in the Federal Aviation Administration’s National Plan ofIntegrated Airport Systems.The regional growth center has experienced significant growth over the last decade withchanges in land use as well as the success of The Landing and Southport. Rainier AvenueSouth is a key corridor that runs along the western edge of the regional growth center andprovides mobility of people for the north half of Renton’s Growth Center which containsBoeing and Paccar, two of Renton’s top 10 employers in 2017. The regional growth centeremploys about 40% of Renton’s workforce.In order for the regional growth center to support the economic and housing growth in thearea, this corridor needs to support and encourage more people walking, biking, and takingtransit. The Rainier Ave S Corridor - Phase 4B Improvements focus on improving transitmobility, traffic safety, and pedestrian safety.The City of Renton anticipates continued growth in the revitalization of the downtown core aswell as developments underway in the Southport area. This project supports additionalemployment growth in Renton by improving access to employers and retail. This project willalso improve a significant connecting corridor to other regional centers, such as Tukwila,Kent/Auburn, Bellevue, and Seattle.

Criteria: Benefit to Regional Growth or Manufacturing/IndustrialCenter1. Describe how this project will benefit or support the housing and employment

development in a regional growth center(s) and/or employment growth in amanufacturing/industrial center(s). Does it support multiple centers? Pleaseprovide a citation of the relevant policies and/or specific project references in asubarea plan or in the comprehensive plan.In order to provide the significant capacity for Renton's new housing and employment targetsof 14,835 new housing units and 29,000 new jobs by 2031, the City has zoned the areassurrounding Rainier Ave corridor as high-density mixed-use, allowing densities of 60 dwellingunits per acre. The project also supports additional employment growth by serving as asignificant connecting corridor to/from the adjacent Renton Regional Center to other regionalcenters, such as Tukwila, Kent/Auburn, Bellevue and Seattle. The Rainier Avenue corridor provides a direct connection between State Route 167 andInterstate 405 as well as connects two of the highest populated cities in the state, Rentonand Seattle. This project continues the previous phases of improvements transforming aregional transportation corridor, previously designed only with vehicle traffic in mind, to amore efficient multi-modal corridor that serves existing needs and future growth in theRenton regional growth center, where people feel safer walking, biking, and taking transit, sothat all travel modes can connect to the neighboring centers of Tukwila, Kent, Burien, SeaTacand Seattle.Policies in Renton’s Comprehensive Plan encourage transit and pedestrian friendly newdevelopment in the Growth Center, include:Policy T-39: Provide multimodal transportation improvements that support land use plans andare compatible with surrounding land uses.Policy T-40: Plan, design, and operate streets to enable safe and convenient access andtravel for all users including pedestrians, bicyclists, transit riders, and people of all ages and

3 of 11

travel for all users including pedestrians, bicyclists, transit riders, and people of all ages andabilities, as well as freight and motor vehicle drivers, and to foster a sense of place in thepublic realm with attractive design amenities.Policy T-41: Plan for land use densities and mixed-use development patterns that encouragewalking, biking and transit use in designated areas. Policy T-42: Continue to implement the following design guidelines in Renton’s RegionalGrowth Center by encouraging compact growth by addressing density by linkingneighborhoods, and connect streets, sidewalks and trails; implement completion of missinglinks and connections in the pedestrian and bicycle systems; and facilities are designed forpedestrians and bicyclists.

2. Describe how the project provides or benefits a range of travel modes to userstraveling to/from centers, or if it provides a missing mode.The segment of Rainier Avenue South addressed by this project is a T-2 truck route thatcurrently serves transit vehicles, freight trucks, other general purpose vehicles, andpedestrians. It also connects to multiple T-3 east-west truck routes. The previous phase ofthis project, south of S 2nd St, is identified as a T-1 truck route in the Freight GoodsTransportation system, carrying over 16 million tons of freight annually. The Rainier Ave corridor serves through traffic destined to other areas of the City and regionaltransportation facilities (I-405, SR 167, SR 900 and Tukwila Sounder Station) and providesaccess for commercial businesses abutting both sides of the street and to and from nearbyresidential neighborhoods. The project corridor carries a high volume of traffic (50,000vehicles per day) and experiences significant traffic delays, vehicles entering/exitingdriveways, vehicles making turns at intersections with inadequate corner radii, and transitstopping at bus stops contribute to traffic congestion and the resulting decreased speedalong the corridor.The Rainier Avenue South project will improve mobility, access and safety for multiple modes,especially transit, freight and pedestrian on a segment of one of the few north-southconnections serving Renton's Growth Center that also connects to several surroundingcenters. It will increase safety and accessibility for people walking, bicycling and taking transitwith new facilities, improves general purpose and freight traffic movement and safety throughaccess management, and upgrading signalized intersections. This project will improve theconnectivity and freight mobility between the Urban Center-North (Boeing’s Renton Plant) andthe Kent Industrial/Manufacturing Center, supporting jobs in the Aerospace and Logistics andInternational Trade industries.The improvements included in this project will provide the opportunity for a currently auto-dominated corridor to become a more transit, pedestrian and bicycle compatible urbantransportation corridor. Transit services along the Rainier Ave corridor are provided by KingCounty Metro (5 routes, including RapidRide line F) and Sound Transit (2 routes). Metro’sStrategic Plan envisions two other Rapid Ride lines connecting from Renton’s regional growthcenter – one to Seattle and another to Bellevue.The Rainier Ave corridor serves through traffic destined to other areas of the City and regionaltransportation facilities (I-405, SR 167, SR 900 and Tukwila Sounder Station) and providesaccess for commercial businesses abutting both sides of the street and to and from nearbyresidential neighborhoods. The project corridor carries a high volume of traffic (50,000vehicles per day) and experiences significant traffic delays. Vehicles entering/exitingdriveways, vehicles making turns at intersections with inadequate corner radii, and transitstopping at bus stops contribute to traffic congestion and the resulting decreased speedalong the corridor.Improved facilities will provide pedestrians, transit users, and persons with disabilitiesincreased access and safety along the project corridor. This project will widen the existingnarrow sidewalks and provide a buffer to the heavily travelled roadway. Crossings will beimproved for all ages and abilities by new crosswalks, a pedestrian actuated traffic signal(HAWK), ADA compliant curb ramps, and upgraded refuge islands and pedestrian signals atintersections. Pedestrian-scale illumination, an improved segment of the Lake WashingtonLoop Trail, streetscape amenities such as street trees, street furniture and public art willimprove the overall pedestrian environment, which should encourage and increase thepedestrian travel between the various businesses and neighboring residential areas.

3. Describe how the project will benefit a variety of user groups, includingcommuters, residents, and/or commercial users.The improvements will connect areas of high minority population in the vicinity of the projectto jobs and services. This project assists a sizeable minority (56%), low income (15% belowpoverty level) and seniors (15%) population with better access to employment centers,shopping and recreation. Employees in the Renton regional growth center will have animproved street environment for commuting and recreation use.Reconstruction of sidewalks separated from the travelled lane, adding curb ramps, apedestrian actuated crossing signal, illumination, traffic signal improvements includingaccessible pedestrian signals (APS) and upgraded crosswalks will allow people of all ages and

4 of 11

accessible pedestrian signals (APS) and upgraded crosswalks will allow people of all ages andabilities, especially low income, seniors and disabled population living around the project towalk to shopping, recreation and employment.Rainier Avenue is one of the major transit corridors for Renton which connects people tohome, work, destinations, and necessary services. Transit riders will benefit through corridortransit mobility and pedestrian access improvements. Auto-oriented commuters will alsobenefit from the traffic flow and safety improvements included with this project.

4. Describe how the project will benefit minority and low-income populations asidentified in the President’s Order for Environmental Justice, seniors, people withdisabilities, those located in highly impacted communities, and/or areasexperiencing high levels of unemployment or chronic underemployment; pleasebe specific and provide data where applicable.PSRC's Interactive Resource Map show data of 59% to 92% minority population living withinand surrounding the project corridor. According to the PSRC map, 21% to 33% of thehouseholds live below the federal poverty line, and 11% to 14% are disabled citizens. 15% to19% of the population surrounding the project are senior citizens.According to the PSRC map for Puget Sound the area along Rainier Ave has "Very LowOpportunity" versus surrounding cities. This index is based on factors such as access toeducation, jobs, transportation alternatives, health and social networks. The Opportunityindex compares neighborhood to other neighborhood in the region.According to 2010 Census, the census blocks affected within walking distance (1/4 mile)show the population includes: 65% minority, 30% at or below poverty line, and 46% at orbelow 2X poverty line (working poor). Also included in this application are graphicsrepresenting the Working Poor Population and Workers Earning $1,250 per month or less.Project improvements will provide more access to opportunity to these groups that typicallyhave a greater need for infrastructure and transit investments. Of this population group, 17%of the Adults (ages 18+) and 51% of the Seniors (ages 65+) are living with a Disability.

5. Describe how the project will support the establishment of new jobs/businessesor the retention of existing jobs/businesses including those in the industryclusters identified in the adopted regional economic strategy.This project supports the Renton regional growth center, as well as the industrial,manufacturing and commercial areas within the City which employ over 50,000 people. Thetop three industry clusters are Aerospace and Defense, Logistics and International Trade, andInformation Technology. Aerospace dominates the industry with three of Boeing's majorbusiness units: Commercial Airplanes, Boeing Capital, and the Shared Services Group.Renton's Aerospace industry accounts for over 31% of Renton's workforce.This project is adjacent to the Renton Airport, which is the 3rd most important airport inWashington (economically) generating over $13.6 billion in business revenues in 2018. TheRenton Municipal Airport is a major general aviation airport and part of the National Plan ofIntegrated Airport Systems (NPIAS). General aviation is an important component of thetransportation system and takes pressure away from other transportation modes whileproviding business and recreational access to many communities. General aviation, and inparticular airports that are part of the NPIAS, serve a unique function in the air transportationsystem by relieving commercial airports of general aviation traffic. According to the 2018WSDOT Aviation Economic Impact Study, four airports in Washington State account for thegreatest economic impact: The most significant overall finding is that the statewideeconomic impacts attributable to airports are substantial, but heavily concentrated in just fourfacilities (Paine Field, Boeing Field, and Renton Municipal) and Sea-Tac, which is the principalcommercial airline hub in the State. Combined, they account for 89% of total jobs and 93% oftotal statewide output attributable to individual airport activity.

Additional capacity and looming pressures challenges the extended aerospace supply chainto meet delivery expectations. Higher production rates will lead to greater flow of material andworkers and improving transit mobility is essential to relieve congestion for aerospaceworkers. This project will improve the connectivity and freight mobility between Renton’sregional growth center and the Kent and Tukwila Industrial/Manufacturing Centers, supportingjobs in the Aerospace and Logistics and International Trade industries. Improving the areasurrounding the Renton airport enhances freight mobility and overall efficiency of the corridor.

This project improves travel connections between Renton's regional growth center andregional transportation facilities (I-405, SR 167, SR 900 and Tukwila Sounder Station) whichcontribute to improved conditions for delivery of freight goods and access foremployees/workforces throughout the region. This project will support continued economicgrowth of the regional growth center through roadway, transit service, pedestrian andbicyclist access improvements. The Rainier Avenue corridor project improves vehicular,pedestrian and bicyclist access on a street network serving the existing workforce andcustomer base and future business goals of Renton's regional growth center.The signal improvements and upgrades will improve the efficiency of movement of goods

5 of 11

The signal improvements and upgrades will improve the efficiency of movement of goodsand materials which will help the connections for freight mobility. The project improvementswill enhance transit service between the Renton regional growth center and other regionalurban centers. This can improve Renton's ability to draw a workforce and customer base froma wider area throughout the region.

Criteria: System Continuity/Long-Term Benefit and Sustainability1. Describe how this project supports a long-term strategy to maximize the

efficiency of the corridor, including TDM and activities and ITS improvements thatuse advanced technologies or innovative approaches to improve traffic flow.Describe the problem and how this project will remedy it.The efficiency of the corridor will be maximized through intersection and signalimprovements, such as signal timing optimization and coordination, signage and lighting andmotor-vehicle detection.Pedestrian efficiency will be improved by wider sidewalks separated from the driving lanes,and illumination. Bicycle travel efficiency and safety will be improved by the installation of asegment of a regional trail (ped/bike path) separated from the traveled lanes by a landscapedbuffer and illumination. Transit improvements and the improved pedestrian and bicyclistenvironment provides the opportunity to encourage and help to modify travel behavior.

2. Describe how this project provides a “logical segment” that links to a regionalgrowth or manufacturing/industrial center.This is the next phase of the Rainier Ave Corridor project. It is a logical continuation ofprevious improvements to a major transportation corridor providing connection to/from theRenton regional growth center to Seattle, Tukwila, Kent/Auburn, and Bellevue regionalcenters.The Rainier Avenue corridor is part of the regional transportation improvement plan todevelop existing facilities into a more efficient multi-modal transportation system that linkscenters throughout the region. This is phase 4B of the Rainier Ave corridor improvementsand supports Renton and the Region policies to encourage: a) non-motorized modes oftravel, with wider sidewalks and a segment of a regional ped/bike path; b) transit use byproviding an improved landscape in preparation for future Rapid Ride lines and c) moreefficient freight movement and general purpose traffic through access management andtraffic signal improvements.

3. Describe how the project fills in a missing link or removes barriers to/from acenter.The project will improve walkability and access for pedestrians and bicyclists to Regional trails(Lake Washington Loop Trail, Cedar River Trail, EasTrail and Lake to Sound Trail) as well as intoRenton’s regional growth center in the downtown core. Improving safety for all modes byreducing conflict points and creating a more aesthetically-pleasing and inviting environmentthat creates more opportunities and options choosing active modes of transportation.The Rainier Avenue South project will promote development of strong communities andneighborhoods by enhancing pedestrian/bicyclists accessibility and safety. The projectimprovements will also benefit general traffic, freight movement and transit by increasingmobility and traffic flow through the corridor.This corridor is long overdue for infrastructure to improve the barriers that impede ADAaccessibility. The traffic signal improvements which include accessible pedestrian signals(APS) and upgraded crosswalks will allow people of all ages and abilities to cross the roadwaysafer. Access management and infrastructure improvements create a more accessible routefor people.

4. Describe how this project will relieve pressure or remove a bottleneck on theregional transportation system and how this will positively impact overall systemperformance.The project will improve access to/from the adjacent Renton regional growth center tomultiple regional centers. With the project focus on multi-modal transportation, it will continuethe upgrade of an essential link in the regional transportation network by providing urbanroadway amenities that implement Renton’s adopted "Complete Streets" vision. The projectimproves general purpose and freight traffic flow and pedestrian movement and safety alongthe heavily traveled Rainier Avenue corridor. The City has already seen improvement in transitmobility through the improvements made in the previous phases of the project.

5. Describe how this project addresses safety and security.From 2014 to present, there were approximately 250 accidents within the project limits with11 of them involving pedestrians and bicyclists. Safety along this segment of the corridor fornon-motorized travel will be addressed by: a) separating pedestrians from the travel lane by a)landscaped buffer; b) upgrading substandard ADA facilities; c) installation of a HAWK signal;and d) adding a segment of a regional ped/bike trail.Safety for motorized travel will be improved by separating transit and vehicles accessing

6 of 11

Safety for motorized travel will be improved by separating transit and vehicles accessingbusiness from the general purpose lane and introducing landscaped median to restrictmidblock left turns, upgrading existing traffic signals and adding a HAWK signal.The existing conditions on this corridor do not support a high level of public safety andsecurity, especially during times of traffic congestion and at night. Wider sidewalks andupgraded streetlighting will create a more inviting environment where there is more visibilityfrom the roadway and adjacent properties so that people can feel safer to travel the corridorusing non-motorized modes.

6. Describe how the project provides opportunities for active transportation thatcan lead to public health benefits.This project will improve corridor aesthetics and contribute to building a healthy andsustainable lifestyle. In addition to improving walkability and access for pedestrians andbicyclists to Regional trails (Lake Washington Loop Trail, Cedar River Trail, and Lake to SoundTrail), project improvements raise the level of comfort and enhances the user experience forpeople walking and biking in the vicinity.Pedestrian and bicycle facilities will encourage walking and biking in a more comfortable andsafe environment. Encouraging the use of non-motorized modes of travel will improve healthby increasing physical activity and reducing air pollution. Health impacts will also be felt bytransit riders enjoying the increased efficiency and reliability of the transit system.

Other Considerations1. Describe any additional aspects of your project not requested in the evaluation

criteria that could be relevant to the final project recommendation and decision-making process.Rainier Avenue is a major arterial connecting Renton's regional growth center to regionaltransportation facilities of I-405, SR 167, SR900 and Tukwila Sounder station. Rainier Ave SCorridor Improvements - Phase 4B encourages a mode shift away from automobiles to transitby providing an improved environment and safety for people and improving transit mobilityand reliability. The City has identified the regional growth center as a prime location for transit-oriented development (TOD) and has initiated a subarea plan. The new South Renton TransitCenter planned for I-405 BRT will be a key connector for Sound Transit, Metro, and regionaltrails. The Rainier Ave South Corridor Improvements has been a project in process that hashelped shepherd the growth of the region even as elected officials and housing markets canchange and fluctuate. This project has been a consistent priority for the region and it isimportant to complete this corridor.

PROJECT

This is Phase 4 of the Rainier Ave Corridor Improvements, and will extend the improvements from S 3rd St to NW 3rd Pl. Project elements include sidewalk widening with streetscaping, adding pedestrian-scale illumination, adding a pedestrian actuated traffic signal, upgrading existing traffic signals, transit facility improvements, planted buffer strips and landscaped medians. Also includes a ped/bike path on the east side of Rainier Ave N, between Airport Way and NW 3rd Pl.

To improve traffic operations, reduce collisions, and provide greater ease of non-motorized and transit-based travel.

A STP grant in the amount of $2,600,000 was awarded (2014) for design of Phase 4 and design is currently underway. Additional STP grants were awarded for Right-of-Way for $3,000,000 and for construction of Phase 4A for $4,500,000.
