Project Overview
Walk N Roll is a school‐focused public education and outreach program that encourages students and families to use active transportation choices for all trips. It positively impacts air quality in our region, neighborhoods, and around public schools by reducing congestion and idling on the trips to and from schools. The Walk N Roll program provides hands on activities for students with school district, city, and other partners to emphasize the benefits of safe biking, walking, and transit use especially in relation to air quality and the fact that motor vehicles are the main source of outdoor air pollution. This project will fund activities for the 2019-2020 school year.

Project Overview
The Smart Corridors Signal Upgrade and Transit Signal Priority Project Phase II is a collaborative effort of six different transportation agencies, with support from Thurston Regional Planning Council and the cities of Lacey, Olympia, Tumwater, Thurston County, Intercity Transit, and Washington State Dept. of Transportation, Olympic Region. Each of those entities owns or operates equipment essential to implementation of the Smart Corridors project. This scalable project will optimize, and where appropriate synchronize, the upgraded signals, both for general traffic flows and transit, including implementation of Transit Signal Priority. Phase II will concentrate on the Martin Way corridor from Martin Way (near Lowes), west to Pacific Avenue (Olympia section), and Capitol Way/Capitol Boulevard from south of the Interstate 5 overpass to Tumwater Boulevard (Olympia-Tumwater section. A separate Phase III will focus on the remainder of Martin Way from College Street to Marvin Road and will be initiated after the construction of the new Marvin Road I-5 Interchange. This proposal will accept a minimum grant award of no less than $250,000.

Project Overview
This project will upgrade 42 intersections in the City of Olympia with 2070 Traffic Signal Controllers, associated intersection software, and conflict monitors. The project will expand traffic signal coordination and the ability to implement Transit Signal Priority (TSP), where beneficial, throughout Downtown Olympia and the west side of Olympia. This will help make transit more desirable and predictable. This project expands on the previous Smart Corridors Signal Upgrade and Transit Signal Priority project, funded in 2012.

Each of those entities owns or operates equipment essential to implementation of the Smart Corridors project. This scalable project will optimize, and where appropriate synchronize, the upgraded signals, both for general traffic flows and transit, including implementation of Transit Signal Priority. Phase III 2020 will concentrate on the remainder of Martin Way from College Street to Marvin Road (Lacey, Thurston County, Olympia section), and will be initiated after the construction of the new Marvin Road – Interstate 5 interchange, which will change signal timing throughout this section of Lacey. An alternate Phase III is west Olympia (signal upgrades funded through a separate CMAQ application), should the construction of the Marvin Road interchange get delayed pushing the timeframe outside of the availability of CMAQ funding. This proposal will accept a minimum grant award of no less than $250,000.
