County seeks project ideas Now's the time to pitch your
road project idea to the County
(Port Orchard, WA)
Kitsap County is asking for road project ideas and suggestions to be
included in the 6-year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). Each
year Kitsap County Public Works completes a transportation project
selection process. This year’s process determines which new roadway
projects will be selected to be included in the 2011 – 2016 TIP.
Projects are scored and ranked using objective criteria. The criteria
include safety and/or capacity needs, structural condition,
environmental retrofits, and non-motorized needs. Projects are selected
based on the availability and timing of funding, especially for State
and Federally funded programs. The project selection process and TIP
update happens only once each year. If you have a suggestion for a
project, now is the time to speak up. Suggestions for this year’s TIP
update are accepted through April 30th.
Submit your idea online at
www.kitsapgov.com/pw/tipplan.htm. Complete information about the
process, and descriptions of the type of projects considered, are also
available there. Call Kitsap One (360-337-5777) if you have questions.
