County presents 2027–2032 Transportation Improvement Program, staff says most six‑year projects are reasonably funded

Sep 18, 2026

Transportation staff reviewed the county’s six‑year TIP, highlighted major projects (179th Street corridor roundabout and bridges, 15th Avenue extensions, bridge and culvert replacements) and said most construction projects on the six‑year schedule are reasonably funded though two fish‑passage projects depend on competitive state grants.

The full story

Chris Carl, the county's Transportation Capital Supervisor, and John McChery, senior capital programming specialist, presented the 2027–2032 Transportation Improvement Program and explained how TIP projects flow from the county’s capital facility plan (CFP) and the Growth Management Act. Carl said the TIP maps projects, distinguishes 'obligated' (reasonably funded) projects from newer ones, and will come back to the commission Oct. 15 for a hearing and a Nov. 3 council adoption schedule.
