(REVISED FOR ENGROSSED: Addressing the state route number 520 bridge replacement and HOV project.) (REVISED FOR PASSED LEGISLATURE: Regarding the state route number 520 bridge replacement and HOV project.)

Summary

  • Requires that the state move forward with a state route 520 (SR 520) bridge replacement project design that provides six total lanes, with four general purpose lanes and two lanes that are for high occupancy vehicle travel that could also accommodate high capacity transportation. Further requires that the bridge be designed to accommodate light rail in the future and to support a bus rapid transit system in the corridor.
  • Directs the Office of Financial Management to hire a mediator and appropriate planning staff to develop a project impact plan for addressing the impacts of the project design. Establishes that the ultimate goal of the mediation is to develop a project impact plan agreed to by all appropriate parties, and directs the mediator to work with all interested parties.
  • Requires that the mediator review the Department of Transportation's (Department) project design plans in the draft environmental impact statement for conformance with certain legislative goals.
  • Permits the mediator to determine that additional alternative concept designs should be considered for the west end of the project.
  • Directs the mediator to provide to the Joint Transportation Committee and Governor: a progress report by August 1, 2007, periodic status reports, and a final project impact plan by December 1, 2008.
  • Prohibits the Department from beginning on-site construction on any part of the SR 520 project until it submits a finance plan to the Legislature that includes state funding, federal funding, at least $1.1 billion dollars in regional contributions, and revenue from tolling.
