Summary
The city previewed work to prepare the 2027–2032 Transportation Improvement Program over the next three months and announced a WSDOT‑funded Clark Street project aimed at improving walking and biking along that corridor. The city will seek public input on the TIP.
Pasco City officials will prepare a 2027–2032 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) and aim to create and adopt the plan in roughly the next three months, the moderator said in a program preview. "The 2027 through 2032 Transportation Improvement Program will be created and adopted in about the next 3 months," the moderator said.
The TIP will identify and prioritize roadway improvements planned over the next six years and officials said they will solicit public input on the plan. The moderator urged residents to watch for details about upcoming meetings where the plan will be discussed.
The program preview also announced a Clark Street improvement project tied to Pasco's downtown master plan. "This project is entirely funded by a grant from the Washington State Department of Transportation, and it will make it easier to walk and bike along this corridor," the moderator said.
Why it matters: the TIP guides which projects get prioritized and when construction or design work moves forward; the Clark Street project, funded by the state, is an example of how grant dollars are being used to advance pedestrian and bicycle improvements in the downtown area.
Next steps: the city will hold public meetings as part of the TIP process over the coming months and expects to adopt the 2027–2032 TIP within the stated timeline.
