Project Description (two pages)
Describe the problem this project is designed to solve in relation to both the local public
transportation system and the broader regional transportation system. Include the
location and the specific congested corridor or situation.
On an average day, 28,000 vehicles travel over Snoqualmie Pass. This number is
estimated to double on weekends and holidays. WSDOT expects these traffic volumes
to increase 2.1 percent every year, reaching an average of over 41 ,000 vehicles per day
by 2030.
The 2010 U.S. census data indicates there are 1,395 daily trips leaving Kittitas County
and traveling on 1-90 to King, Snohomish, Pierce, Kitsap, or Thurston Counties. There
are currently no deSignated park and ride lots located within Kittitas County.
WSDOT has observed an average of 7 vehicles parking in the vicinity of the proposed
park and ride lot, located on the north side of 1-90, at Exit 78. Currently, the undeveloped
piece of WSDOT right of way being used by commuters is an unpaved lot with no
lighting, and unmaintained access location. WSDOT has stated that there are no
guarantees these cars parked on this lot will not be towed because they are trespassing
(violating state law). Parking will not be allowed on this parcel of land by WSDOT,
unless a park and ride is established.
Our project will help address the traffic congestion on 1-90 by providing a park and ride
lot to encourage commuters to reduce the number of vehicles in this corridor by
carpooling or vanpooling.
~ ::z: Washington State ./1 Department of Transportation
Project Description (two pages)
Describe how the proposed grant project will address the above problem.
Recently WSDOT performed a survey of commuters currently parking in the vicinity of
the proposed park and ride lot to obtain an understanding of their travel behavior. The
survey results and census data indicate that westbound commuters are destined for
places in the Puget Sound Region. The survey respondents were destined for Bellevue
(67 miles distance) and Renton (81 miles distance). We assumed that the
non-respondents (persons parking in this location that did not respond to the survey) are
also destined for the Puget Sound Region. An estimated average vehicle miles traveled,
based off of the collected data from this survey, show 75.4 miles one-way.
The proposed park and ride located north of 1-90, at Exit 78 will provide a legal, improved
parking lot for up to 26 vehicles . We assume commuters using the existing lot will
continue to travel to the Puget Sound Region for the next four years, and estimate that
the average vehicle miles traveled for the future year scenario will continue to be 75.4
miles one-way. Given the large number of commuters to the Puget Sound region, we
estimate that this new park and ride lot will double the number of vehicles parked from 9
to 18 by year 4 .

Impact on Congested Corridors
Level of Service
The current level of service through the corridor is:
Varies in Level of Service from C through F
Comment:
Describe the congestion problems your proposal addresses. The explanation should relate the project to
both the public transportation system and the broader regional transportation system and should clearly
demonstrate the connection between the problem and your proposal.
1-90 is listed as a targeted bottleneck and choke-point for investments in the 2004 Washington
Transportation Plan update on Bottlenecks and Choke-points. Although travel delay mostly occurs in
urban areas, this major cross state corridor experiences level of service C through F periodically due
to the large volume of trips associated with freight, commuting, and recreational travel. Currently,
congestion and slowdowns on 1-90 across Snoqualmie Pass follow a few typical patterns. Winter
storms cause slowdowns from November through March. Summer time high volumes typically occur
Memorial Day through Labor Day. Volumes peak in both directions with the heavier congestion
occurring eastbound on Friday, and westbound Sunday.
When the 1-90 Snoqualmie Pass East improvement project is finished it will have a large impact on
traffic. The project is expected to extend into 2020 and will provide an additional lane in each
direction just east of the Summit. Simply adding capacity is not the whole answer, travelers need to
be encouraged to reduce the number of vehicles on the road by carpooling and vanpooling. The
park and ride lot proposed will encourage commuters to consolidate and reduce the single
occupancy vehicle.
Other congested areas of concern would be motorists entering the metropolitan area of Puget
Sound. Congestion on a daily basis, occurs beginning in the Issaquah area on 1-90.
The proposed Park and Ride lot will serve to reduce the number of motorists entering the
construction zone on Snoqualmie Pass as well as the metropolitan area on a daily basis.

System Integration (two pages)
Describe the system integration problems your proposal addresses. For example, indicate how
your proposal:
• improves multimodal connections and service
• establishes or improves connections between counties or urban centers
• exemplifies coordination among jurisdictions and/or
• improves the use of demand management strategies to leverage existing services and
programs, including Growth and TranspOltation Efficiency Center programs
• Limit your response to two pages
Improves Multi-modal Connections and Service:
The proposed Park and Ride lot off of 1-90, at Exit 78 will improve multi-modal connections
and services by encouraging the use of car and van pooling, raising the awareness of the
public about alternative forms of transportation, reduce emissions and reduce the use of fossil
fuels. By providing a safe and convenient parking facility, Kittitas County and WSDOT are
encouraging the consolidation of travelers and the reduction of single occupancy vehicles on
the road .
Establishes or Improves Connections Between Counties or Urban Centers :
The proposed park and ride location is currently used illegally by commuters as an unofficial
park and ride. The commuters have established a visible need for improved facilities in this
location. Our project will establish the first park and ride within Kittitas County, in a location
East of Snoqualmie Pass along 1-90, providing better connectivity between Kittitas County and
the Puget Sound Region.
Exemplifies Coordination Among Jurisdictions and/or Improves the use of Demand
Management Strategies to Leverage Existing Services and programs, including Growth and
Transportation Efficiency Center Programs:
1-90 over Snoqualmie Pass is the major east/west corridor within Washington State . The
Kittitas County 1-90 , Exit 78 Park and Ride project improves the use of Demand Management
Strategies, within Kittitas County, by providing and encouraging commuters to drive less by
organizing car or van pools .

Reduction Policy Statement
1. Has your agency adopted policies to reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions?
Yes lZJ NoD
2. Please describe specific goals and objectives of your agency's Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction Policy,
and describe what components it includes, and how it is implemented.
On August 30th, 2011 Kittitas County Board of County Commissioners signed resolution no.
2011-076, adopting policies for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Kittitas County's
goals by adopting these policies is to reduce the need for imported oil through the
implementation of programs and policies promoting reduced energy bills, green space
preservation, air quality improvements, reduced traffic congestion, improved transportation
choices, and green house gas emission reduction.
Kittitas County's, Washington Greenhouse Gas Emission Reductions Policies include Public
Buildings, FleeWehicles, Equipment, Waste Reduction/Use, Land Use, Global, Public
Eduction/Outreach, and Transportation.
Kittitas County's overall land use development code, encourages development within our
designated urban growth areas.
3. RCW 70.235.070 requires project "consistency" with the state Greenhouse Gas emission limits, and
Vehicle Mile Traveled reduction benchmarks found in RCW 47.01.440. Please describe how your proposed
project is consistent with RCW 70.235.070.
The Kittitas County 1-90, Exit 78 Park and Ride project is consistent with RCW 70.235.070 by
identifying and proposing a facility to allow commuters to consolidate and reduce vehicle miles
traveled. Our project assumptions and calculations indicate how our project aims to reduce
Annual Vehicle Trips within the first year by 4,680 and reduce annual vehicle miles by 352,872.
Our project also shows that by year four we anticipate a 100% increase in users reducing
annual vehicle trips by 9,360 and reduce annual vehicle miles traveled by 705,744.
