WOWashington state Project Description (two pages)
R Department of Transportation
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.
This project is designed to provide additional transit access to support the high parking
demand at the Kent Transit Center. The existing surface and structured parking is full by
7AM on weekdays. With the current Sounder schedule, half of the AM northbound
commuter trains arrive after 7AM. Commuters that would otherwise choose to ride the
bus or train to access other regional centers are having to drive instead. Many riders
have expressed frustration that a lack of parking prohibits them from being able to
access transit. A missing link of sidewalk along 1 st Avenue N between Smith St and
Temperance St is also within the project area. This area is heavily used by commuters
walking and biking to and from the Sounder Platform and Metro and Sound Transit bus
station pullouts. This project will complete pedestrian improvements in the area as well
as increase parking.

Kent, the sixth largest city in the State, is located in the heart of South King County along Interstate 5
between Tacoma and Seattle. With both a designated urban center and manufacturing and industrial
center, there is no lack of transportation activity throughout the City. The Kent Transit Center is
situated within the urban center in downtown Kent, serving thousands of commuters each day.
Three regional freeways run through Kent from north-to-south: Interstate 5 (1-5), State Route 167 (SR
167), and SR 181 (W Valley Highway). Five State Routes (SR) are located within or adjacent to the
borders of Kent: SR 99 runs north-to-south along the City's western border, just west of 1-5; SR 516
runs east-to-west through the southern portion of Kent; SR 515 runs north-to-south through the
middle of the City; and SR 18 passes just southeast of the City limits. The region has experienced
significant residential and employment growth over the past several decades. As a result, these
systems have become increasingly congested.
Transit is essential to reducing Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) in our region. Through the City's
Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) program, the City has had great success helping employees bridge
the gap regarding the last leg of their trip using the VanShare program. Transit, ride-sharing, parking,
pedestrian and bicycle facilities are all vital to maximizing the services that are currently in place.
Ridership is currently at an all time high, these services will become increasingly more critical as
ridership continues to increase. Additional parking and increased pedestrian access is just one
piece of the puzzle. The City looks forward to continuing to work with our regional partners to expand
the transit system, decrease VMT, and work with our business community to expand the CTR

This project will improve transit access at the Kent Transit Center by completing a
missing sidewalk link, providing pedestrian amenities, and adding 36 additional parking
stalls for commuters.
Additional lighting, drainage, sidewalk, curb, gutter, and landscaping along 1st Avenue
N will improve safety near the Sounder Platform. This project is located right in the
middle of the action. Thousands of transit riders access this location each day. The
highest boarding activity in Kent is at Kent Transit Center. The Transit Center is
currently served by fifteen King County Metro Routes, two Sound Transit Regional
Express routes, and Sounder Commuter Rail. The Kent Transit Center is a multi-modal
transfer station for Sound Transit's express routes, Sounder Commuter Rail and King
County Metro routes serving the region. The Kent Transit Center currently has 994
parking spaces (surface and garage), passenger amenities such as bus shelters,
lighting, sidewalks, bicycle racks and lockers, as well as rider information.
The Transit Center is centrally located in downtown Kent will easy access to key
destinations such as: the Regional Justice Center, the Kent Library, the ShoWare
Events Center and downtown businesses. Significant retail development is located
immediately west of the tracks and adjacent to the commuter rail station. Additional
retail development is under construction and residential units are planned to open this
Fall. A 5-story mixed-use development consisting of 172 urban-style apartments, 3,100
square feet of retail was recently constructed and scheduled to open later this Fall.
Amazon is also locating a new distribution facility and will be bringing more than a
hundred new employees to Kent. Slated to open in the fall of 2015, Amazon is joining a
score of innovative, globally competing companies with leading facilities in Kent
including REI, Starbucks, and Boeing.
Through the City's comprehensive plan update the City is looking at ways to equitably
serve our community with transit through inclusive planning and decision making. Our
goal is to provide safe, reliable, multi-modal access to transit. The City recently
updated the Downtown Subarea Action Plan (DSAP) which articulates a vision for
Downtown Kent as a compact, dense, urban center that is pedestrian-friendly,
economically vibrant, and livable.

As a designated urban center, the City recognizes that providing Single Occupancy
Vehicle (SOV) parking isn't the end goal. Increasing the number of all-day parking
stalls will free up spaces in the Kent Transit Center parking garage that can be reserved
for VanShare's. Many employees have trouble accessing the 'last mile' of their trip.
VanShare's are able meet that demand. Parking is a critical component to ensuring a
Vanshares success. The City has also been actively involved in both the PSRC
Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Steering Committee as well as the PSRC
Transit Access Working Group. We look forward to learning from the pilot parking
programs/studies that are currently underway and look forward to working with our
regional partners to maximize transit access and manage demand.

AP Department of Transportation Greenhouse Gas Emission
Reduction Policy Statement
1. Has your agency adopted policies to reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions?
Yes � No
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.
The City adopted resolution No. 1878, endorsing and adopting Greenhouse Gas Emission
Reduction Policies, on October 15, 2013. Exhibit A of Resolution No. 1878 outlines a number of
strategies for public buildings, employees, fleet/vehicles, purchasing, equipment, waste
reduction/use, land use, global, energy source/use, public eduction/outreach and transportation.
The City is currently undergoing a Comprehensive Plan Update which is being guided by the
goals and policies established in Vision 2040, the adopted regional growth strategy; the
Washington Climate Change Challenge established by the Governor in February 2007, and
Legislative action under RCW 70.235.020, both of which established greenhouse gas emission
targets; and the approved County-wide Planning Policies for King County.
I
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
i
project is consistent with RCW 70.235.070.
This project will reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) by reducing vehicle miles traveled and
by increasing or encouraging the use of alternative travel modes. The project also provides safe
and convenient access for pedestrians and bicyclists. This project will promote ride sharing
programs, by freeing up additional spaces in the Kent Transit Center surface parking garage for
designated ride sharing vehicles. Additional parking at the Transit Center will also support local
employers that participate in trip reduction programs. This project also reduces GHG emissions
by providing two new electric vehicle charging stations, these will be the first City installed
electric vehicle charging stations.
This project is consistent with the state's limits on the emissions of greenhouse gases
established in RCW 70.235.020 as well as statewide goals to reduce annual per capita vehicle
miles traveled by 2050. The project is estimated to reduce 18,346 vehicle trips/year and 335,549
vehicle miles/year by 2020,
