NEEDS AND STRATEGIESPreservation

Pavement Condition and Needs:This section is hot mix asphalt (HMA) last paved in 1997. It is forecast to be re-surfaced in 2010.

Pavement Management Strategies:There are none identified.

Structures Condition and Needs:There are none identified. (This may include ramps and locally owned structures if any exist.)

Structures Management Strategies:There are none identified.

Additional Condition and Needs:There are none identified.

Additional Management Strategies:There are none identified.

ImprovementMobility Condition and Needs:This section of US 12 experiences traffic back-ups throughout the day beginning at 6:00 am.

Mobility Management Strategies:Adding general purpose lanes through this section will enable traffic to have a more free flowing movement.

Safety Condition and Needs:This section of US 12 experiences many rear-end type accidents due to slowing traffic caused by congestion and inattentivedrivers. Approximately 1/3 of all accidents in the corridor are rear-end.

Safety Management Strategies:Adding signals to this corridor with signal coordination will help to reduce rear-end type collisions.

Environmental Condition and Needs:There are none identified.

Environmental Management Strategies:There are none identified.

Restrictions:There are none identified.

50-Year Configuration:This corridor will continue to infill with mostly commercial type land uses over the next 50 years. This infilling will eventuallynecessitate moving this highway out of the downtown corridor to create a by-pass route around the city.

TIERED PROPOSED SOLUTIONSMinimum Fix

Description:This improvement project will upgrade intersections and install signals through the Clarkston area.

Delay Reduction: None identified.Collision Reduction: None identified.Deficient Concrete Lane Miles: None identified.Total Estimate Cost: $2.5 M

Cost Estimate Explanation:The estimate is based on upgrading three intersections and constructing signal systems at three more in the downtownClarkston.

Minimum Fix Benefits:This project will serve to maintain an acceptable level of service on the facility and to enhance safe operations in areas whereturning movements are creating congestion and delay. There are $8.8 million in safety benefits associated with this improvement.

Moderate FixDescription:This improvement project will upgrade intersections and install signals through the Clarkston area. It will also construct twogeneral purpose lanes through the corridor.

Delay Reduction: None identified.Collisions Reduction: None identified.Deficient Concrete Lane Miles: None identified. Total Estimate Cost: $10.4 M

Cost Estimate Explanation:The cost estimate is based on constructing general purpose lanes and improving and signalizing intersections.

Moderate Fix Benefits:This project will serve to maintain an acceptable level of service on the facility and to enhance safe operations in areas whereturning movements are creating congestion and delay. There are $ 3.2 million in general purpose lane benefits and $8.9 million insafety benefits associated with this project

Maximum FixDescription:This improvement project will construct a by-pass highway around the Clarkston/Lewiston downtown area. It will construct aninterchange at each end of the corridor and a new bridge crossing of the Snake River. This corridor will be approximately half ineach state (Washington and Idaho) so it is logically assumed that half of the project dollars would come from each of thosestates

Delays Reduction: None identified.Collisions Reduction: None identified.Deficient Concrete Lane Miles: None identified. Total Estimate Cost: $76.3 M

Cost Estimate Explanation:The estimate is based on the elements listed above.

Maximum Fix Benefits:This project will serve to reduce level of service problems by removing the roadway from the downtown and routing aroundexisting conflict points (intersections, road approaches, and commercial activities). There are $5.9 million in general purpose lanebenefits and $87 million in safety benefits associated with this project
