One of the projects includes widening Pines at Grace Ave.
to add a left turn lane.
SRTC is asking for input from the public on an
amendment to the 2016-2019 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) that proposes
adding two new City of Spokane projects and one Spokane Valley project to the
program.

The TIP is a
document of projects and programs planned to be undertaken or constructed
during the upcoming four years. It includes project names and descriptions, the
jurisdiction sponsoring them, funding attached to each project, and where the
funding came from (local, state or federal funds). The TIP is updated regularly
throughout the year as SRTC’s member jurisdictions have projects to add, change
or remove from the program. The amendment currently under consideration would
add the following projects:
·        
Maxwell-Mission Ave. Lane Reduction,
Maple St. to Washington St.-
Restripe
a four lane road to two lanes with a two-way left turn lane. Bike lanes and/or
wide lanes will be added for the length of the project.

·        
Monroe St. Lane Reduction and
Hardscape, Indiana Ave. to Kiernan Ave.-
This project will change North Monroe Street from five
lanes to three lanes. It also includes widened sidewalks, curb extensions,
pedestrian refuge islands and other improvements.

·        
SR27 (Pines Road) and Grace Avenue- Widen the roadway to add a left turn
lane.

Details on
the projects are on the SRTC website at www.srtc.org. We encourage you to provide input on the projects.
