The Teton Mobility Corridor Improvements (TMCI) project is located in the Greater Yellowstone Region of Idaho and Wyoming, spanning over 30 miles from Driggs, ID to Jackson, WY through the Teton mountain range. Made up of ID-33 and WY-22 state highways, the corridor connects Teton County, ID to Teton County, WY which are collectively part of the Jackson Micropolitan Statistical Area. Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks lie to north and attract millions of visitors each year. Over the past decade, these communities have experienced tremendous growth in population and visitation due to their proximity to world-class recreation and open space. This growth has created new pressures and challenges on the ID-33/WY-22 corridor to support the daily needs of residents and tourists visiting the region. I A O REGIONA YOMING

Project Framework
TMCI project components are organized around two key transportation systems along the ID-33/WY-22 corridor. This includes the regional transit system, known as the Southern Teton Area Rapid Transit (START) and the regional pathway network which is part of the Greater Yellowstone Trail.
Southern Teton Area Rapid Transit (START) START is the transit provider for the Town of Jackson and Teton County, Wyoming, as well as providing commuter transit service for Teton County, Idaho. Ridership totals over 1,000,000 passengers per year.
Greater Yellowstone Trail Plan (GYT) The Greater Yellowstone Trail Concept Plan was developed through a collaborative regional planning process that formalized a vision for a world-class regional trail system that would enhance quality of life, provide sustainable transportation options, connect to public land and recreational assets, and spur economic development opportunities along the unique and diverse 180-mile corridor.

Benefits
The TMCI will provide comprehensive benefits to communities within Teton Valley, ID and Jackson Hole, WY. These benefits are important as the effects of COVID-19 are felt on local budgets throughout Idaho and Wyoming communities. Benefits from these projects will not only strengthen and hasten economic recovery as visitors return to the region to experience world-class resorts and National Parks, but also optimize and streamline operations for transit while making active transportation trips possible and convenient for local residents.
