County to split cost of Regional Planning Commission traffic study at I‑59/State Route 23 intersection
Summary
Commissioners reviewed a traffic-operations study by the Regional Planning Commission of Greater Birmingham for the I‑59/State Route 23 (Walmart) intersection. The study is required for future federal grant applications; the county's 20% share of the $74,988.73 study is about $14,997.75, with Springville agreeing to pay half.
County staff briefed commissioners on a Regional Planning Commission traffic operations study for State Route 23 at the I‑59/Walmart intersection and emphasized that such studies are commonly required to qualify projects for federal funding. "Many of these studies are required before we can apply for another project," the presenter said, adding they are used in the design phase as part of grant applications.
The county's portion of the study cost is 20% of $74,988.73 (approximately $14,997.75); Springville has agreed to split the county share, reducing St. Clair County's immediate outlay to roughly $7,498.88 if the commission approves participation. Staff said the Regional Planning Commission handles studies needed for federal grant compliance and will proceed with the scope as presented.
