Project Delivery Plan
See the details of our 2024 updated Project Delivery Plan and how it shapes transportation across the state.
The 2024 update to the Project Delivery Plan represents a snapshot as of July 1, 2024, of the project specific plan for work to be delivered by the department for state fiscal years 2025 through 2030. The update includes the following general assumptions and concepts:
- Aligns with legislative direction provided in the 2024 Transportation budget (ESHB 1125) that passed on May 28, 2024.
- Basis for WSDOT's 2025 Supplemental Budget submittal.
- Provides Intent for Delivery.
The Legislature passed the 2024 Transportation Budget (ESHB 2134) with the Governor's signature on May 28, 2024. The biennial budget includes significant investments to support the continuation of the Connecting Washington and Move Ahead Washington revenue packages, over $1 billion for the agency to continue work to meet fish barrier injunction requirements by 2030, investments in the state ferry system, and investments to support statewide transit options, transit grants, grant and incentive programs for electric vehicle infrastructure, and projects to improve safety for bicyclists and pedestrians.
Shaping transportation in Washington
The project delivery plan meets the Federal Highway Administration's requirement for states to program four years of projects in the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) and includes all projects funded by the State Legislature. The plan is updated annually to ensure that budget changes on projects match up with enacted budgets.
Benefits of the 2024 Project Delivery Plan
- By identifying six years of projects, we have better coordination and planning between WSDOT and local governments.
- The plan prioritizes where project funds will be spent first; this allows us to use any extra savings or new revenue on projects that are ready to be built.
- In addition, WSDOT commits, or obligates, the federal funding for the Delivery Plan. This qualifies Washington to receive federal funds that are redistributed annually when other states do not obligate all their funds.
What does the 2024 Project Delivery Plan look like?
Slow down on ice and snow.
It's easier to skid or lose control traveling at higher speeds. Give yourself more time to stop.
Carry chains, practice installing them.
Winter conditions could mean chains are required on your route. Practice putting them on your vehicle ahead of time.
Pack your winter car kit.
Carry extra supplies like warm clothing, ice scraper and brush, jumper cables and other emergency items.
