Agenda Item #4 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) Amendments
TDOT and locally requested amendments for nine (9) air quality non-exempt and two (2) air quality exempt projects. Ten (10) of the proposed amendments are to bring the TIP into alignment with the project descriptions, project horizons, and funded list of projects contained in the Draft Mobility Plan 2050.
The City of Knoxville requested an amendment for the existing Traffic Control Equipment Upgrade project. The amendment revises the project termini and schedule, and increases PE-N, PE-D and ROW costs. The construction phase is removed, and the total project cost is reduced. The Kingston Pike corridor termini are revised to from Metron Center Way/University Commons to Huxley Road. The Broadway corridor termini are revised to from Worlds Fair Park Drive/Oak Ave./Jackson Avenue to Colonial Circle. PE-N is programmed in FY 2025 at an additional cost of $44,200 ($44,200 federal CMAQ). PE-D is programmed in FY 2025 at an additional cost of $437,225 ($437,225 federal CMAQ). ROW is programmed in FY 2025 at an additional cost of $440,000 ($440,000 federal CMAQ). The additional CMAQ is new CMAQ PM2.5 funding and in addition to the original CMAQ award. This amendment removes $9,119,575 (-$8,966,000 federal CMAQ/+$921,425 federal CMAQ PM2.5/-$812,000 federal CRP/-$263,000 local) from the project and the TIP. The total project cost is reduced to $3,046,425.
The remaining ten (10) amendments for TDOT (8) and locally sponsored (2) projects are to bring the TIP into alignment with the Draft Mobility Plan 2050.
