Agency: Intercity Transit | Grant Request: $709,000 |
Match: $143,000 | Total Cost: $852,000 |
Phase: Vehicle Purchase | Project Date: 2021-2023 |
Location: Dial-a-Lift Service Area |
Project Overview
Dial-a-Lift (DAL) provides door-to-door transportation service for customers whose disabilities prevent them from using fixed-route service. DAL is a federally mandated (unfunded) requirement to provide ADA comparable paratransit service within a quarter mile of fixed-route service. The elimination, then severe reduction in federal funding has had a significant negative impact on our ability to fund replacement vehicles.
This project will replace 6 diesel-powered vehicles that are beyond their useful life with 6 propane-powered vehicles which will reduce PM10 emissions (diesel vs. propane) and result in a reduction of 1,285,134 pounds of carbon monoxide. Exceptional maintenance, conservative financial practices, and few grant options result in IT retaining DAL vehicles beyond their federal 7-year life-cycle and keeping them for no less than 10 years. IT provided 166,213 trips in 2016 and 170,714 in 2017. DAL has increased 21% over the last 10 years and is anticipated to grow even faster in the coming years based on age and population statistics. Funding these replacement vehicles will ensure we can continue services and do so while improving air quality in the region’s air quality maintenance area.

Martin Way Corridor Study – West
Agency: Olympia | Grant Request: $173,000 |
Match: $27,000 | Total Cost: $200,000 |
Phase: Study | Project Date: 2020-2022 |
Location: Martin Way, from Pacific Avenue to College Street |
Project Overview
Martin Way, from Pacific Avenue to College Street (3.2 miles), has been identified as both an urban corridor (land use designation) and strategy corridor (transportation designation) in regional and local plans. This former state highway serves as an alternative to I-5, has frequent transit service, and is a prime candidate for increasing land use intensity, and walking and biking activity. This section of Martin Way carries between 14,000 to 25,000 daily vehicles, and has bicycle lanes, but inconsistent pedestrian facilities. The Martin Way Corridor Study West will focus on this section of the corridor, and identify opportunities to increase multimodal mobility and safety. This is a collaborative project between the City of Olympia and Thurston Regional Planning Council, with Thurston County, the City of Lacey, Intercity Transit, and the Economic Development District as key partners. Note: If the Martin Way Corridor East project is also funded, the two projects will be conducted together.

Agency: Lacey and North Thurston Public Schools | Grant Request: $281,990 |
Match: $44,010 | Total Cost: $326,000 |
Phase: Design and Construction | Project Date: 2021-2023 |
Location: Intercity Transit Dial-A-Lift Service Area |
Project Overview
In the coming years, residents will see an increase of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) on the roads, as well as PEV charging stations and other infrastructure at public and private facilities around the state. Using electricity for transportation fuel is a chance to increase the effectiveness of our energy system, reduce the use of fossil fuels, spur new technology, and reduce our carbon footprint. For information on the use of electric vehicles, see the Electric Drive WA website, a portal to information about electric vehicles in Washington State created by the Electric Vehicle Task Force.

Match: $33,750 | Total Cost: $250,000 |
Phase: Program | Project Date: 2021-2023 |
Location: State Capitol Campus |
Project Overview
Despite decades of successful mobile/flexible work deployment nationwide, and several Executive Orders, Washington state agencies lag far behind in implementation. Management continues to focus on the negative: “How will I manage people I can’t see?”
Home to over 6,000 employees and headquarters of most state agencies, the Capital Campus (CC) impacts congestion on city streets and state highways. This intense outreach/education effort will target mobile/flexible work and am/pm schedule shifts. The program will focus on one‐on‐one and group interaction with top/mid‐level managers (deputy directors and their direct reports), taming the fears, and implementing robust formal programs that provide clear guidance to employees.
The Bottom Line on Telework, a 2013 Thurston region study estimated that telework among state and local government employees could reduce CO2 by 2,600‐12,800 metric tons a year (1 day/week to 3 days/week) – the greenhouse gas equivalent of planting 66,000‐328,000 trees. We anticipate proportional results for this subset.
