Agenda Date: August 11, 2025
Subject: Resolution to Create County Project
Port Townsend Gateway Project - Safe Streets for All,
County Road Numbers: Discovery Rd. - 601507 / S. Jacob Miller Rd. -
625309 / Mill Rd. 698619 / a State Route 20
Statement of Issue:
Create a county project known as the Port Townsend Gateway Project - Safe Streets for All.
Analysis/Strategic Goals/Pro's Et Con's:
The close proximity of the SR20/Mill Road/Discovery Road intersections and the intersections of
Discovery Road/Jacob Miller Road/SR20 often cause delays, confusion and frustration for drivers.
This joint City of Port Townsend, County, and WSDOT project is a proposed comprehensive solution
to these complex and busy intersections. This project is #13 on the 2025-2030 Transportation
Improvement Program and 2025 Annual Construction Program. The City and County were jointly
awarded a Federal Highways Administration (FHWA) Safe Streets for All (SS4A) planning grant for
the initial work, consisting of the development of coordinated Comprehensive Safety Action Plans
for each agency. These plans are a prerequisite for future FHWA SS4A implementation
(construction) grants.
Fiscal Impact/Cost Benefit Analysis:
The City and County desire to work in partnership for efficiency in grant administration. Total
estimated cost for the coordinated Comprehensive Safety Action Plans is $225,500 made up of the
SS4A Grant in the amount of $164,000, the County grant match of $20,500, and the City grant
match of $41,000.
Recommendation:
The Board is requested to sign one original of the Resolution to create a county project.
