Tacoma Narrows Bridge Pierce County, WA Description As one of the longest suspension bridges of its type in the United States, the Tacoma Narrows Bridge spans a swift-moving body of tidal water located in southern Puget Sound. Its length of over one mile gracefully connects the City of Tacoma and surrounding areas with the Kitsap Peninsula and, via highways and a floating bridge to the north, with the more distant Olympic Peninsula. The nominated property includes the entire bridge assembly, as well as all accessory features that were part of the 1950 design: the bridge structure, the two-story concrete North and South buildings, the concrete stairways and railings, the sidewalk at the upper level, and the roadway, paths and plantings areas at the lower level. The original toll booths and toll plaza were later removed, although the toll houses remain at the south end of the bridge.

  • 4. the Wedge Historic District
    THE WEDGE HISTORIC DISTRICT From the National Register Nomination Summary Paragraph Tacoma, Washington lies on the banks of Commencement Bay, where the Puyallup River flows into Puget Sound. The city is 30 miles south of Seattle, north of Interstate 5, and 30 miles north of the capital city, Olympia. To the west, a suspension bridge, the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, connects the city to the Kitsap peninsula. Through the community, a main railroad line runs south to California and north to Canada, with another line crossing the Cascades into eastern Washington. The Tacoma “Wedge Neighborhood,” named for its wedge shape, is located between 6th Ave and Division Ave. from South M Street to its tip at Sprague Avenue. The Wedge lies within Tacoma's Central Addition (1884), Ainsworth Addition (1889) and New Tacoma and shares a similar history to that of the North Slope Historic District, which is north of the Wedge Neighborhood across Division Avenue, and is listed on the Tacoma, Washington and National Registers of Historic Places. LOCATION AND SETTING The Wedge Neighborhood is bounded by Division Avenue to the north and 6th Avenue to the south, both arterials that serve to distinguish the Wedge from its surrounding neighborhoods. To the east is Martin Luther King Jr. Way, another arterial, just outside of the district. The district boundary is established by the thoroughly modern MultiCare Hospital campus to the East. The development of the hospital coincides with the borders of the underlying zoning, which is Hospital Medical, the borders of which run along a jagged path north and south from approximately Division to Sixth Ave, alternating between S M St and the alley between S M St and S L St.

The state wanted to improve transportation routes by building bridges but had been hampered by restrictions regarding bonding in Article VIII of the state constitution. Therefore the Toll Bridge Authority was given the power to issue revenue bonds which were not limited by Article VIII. It was to select, fund, build and operate bridges which would probably not win approval in a statewide levy. The revenues from the operation of the bridges would pay off the bonds. The membership of the Authority originally consisted of the Governor, the State Auditor, the Director of the Public Service Commission, the Director of Highways, and the Director of the Department of Finance, Budget and Business. By the time the Authority was dissolved in 1977, the membership consisted of the Governor, two members of the State Highway Commission appointed by the Commission, and two other members appointed by the Governor.

  • SR 16 Tacoma Narrows Bridge to SR 3 Congestion Study – December 2018
    SR 16 Tacoma Narrows Bridge to SR 3 Congestion Study – December 2018 Executive Summary The purpose of the State Route 16, Tacoma Narrows Bridge to State Route 3, Congestion Study is to identify corridor strategies and solutions to address congestion and traffic operational issues on State Route (SR) 16 between the Tacoma Narrows Bridge (TNB) and SR 3, and along SR 3 between the City of Bremerton and Bremerton Airport, including the SR 16/SR 3 interchange at Gorst. Interchanges on both corridors have high levels of congestion during peak travel times. SR 16 provides access from Tacoma and the surrounding area to the Olympic Peninsula and the cities of Gig Harbor, Port Orchard, and Bremerton. Commuter traffic originating in the study area uses SR 16 and the TNB to reach employment in the Tacoma area and other south Puget Sound destinations. At the north end of the corridor is the Naval Base Kitsap-Bremerton. The Navy attracts commuter traffic from throughout the study area. The SR 16 TNB to SR 3 Congestion Study is a Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) Connecting Washington funded project. The project was guided by the WSDOT, an Executive Committee, and Technical Advisory Group representing local jurisdictions and transportation agencies in the corridor. Participants are listed in the preceding pages. A Gorst Planning Study was initiated in 2015 by the Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council, using the WSDOT Practical Solutions approach to evaluate potential solutions to improve mobility issues in the Gorst vicinity; SR 3/SR 16 between Bremerton and Port Orchard. There is significant local concern about traffic in the Gorst area.

  • Trail Planning Framework
    Appendix G: Trail Planning Framework APPENDIX G: T RAIL P LANNING F RAMEWORK Trail Planning Framework Multiple planning documents and regulations guide growth and development in Pierce County. State, county, city and local planning efforts create layers of goals and policies. To prevent contradiction or conflict, this appendix provides an overview of planning efforts that relate to the Pierce County Regional Trails Plan (PCRTP). Washington State Trails Plan The State Recreation and Conservation Office (RCO) is responsible for the Washington State Trails Plan. Accepted by the National Park Service in 1991, the Plan is an element of the Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Planning (SCORP) program. The Plan establishes a number of trail related goals and identifies different trail users. Specific goals related to the Pierce County Regional Trails Plan include: Develop new trails and paths in city and county jurisdictions; Connect trail systems and populated areas via trails and paths; and Increase the miles of trail available in semi-primitive and other remote settings. Trail Settings The Washington State Trails Plan classifies trails by the setting that trail users prefer, which can range from primitive to urban. These trail settings can be restricted or designed for one specific use, or they may be designed for different types of uses (a multi-use trail). The State also identifies water trails as a distinctive trail type. As defined in the State Trail Plan, trail settings include: . Primitive. The most remote parts of the forest where you will meet few if any people. Access is by cross-country travel or by trails. No motorized use is allowed.
