Per 23 U.S.C. § 134(j)(7)(B) of FAST Act, states and Metropolitan Planning Organizations (such as the SPC) must publish annual lists of projects where federal funds were obligated. Specifically, states and MPOs must produce: “An annual listing of projects, including investments in pedestrian walkways and bicycle transportation facilities, for which Federal funds have been obligated in the preceding year shall be published or otherwise made available by the cooperative effort of the State, transit operator, and metropolitan planning organization for public review.” 1 An obligation is the Federal government’s legal commitment to pay the Federal share of a project’s cost. An obligated project is one that has been authorized by the federal agency and for which funds have been committed. Projects for which funds have been obligated are not necessarily initiated or completed in the program year, and the amount of the obligation will not necessarily equal the total cost of the project. For Federal Transit Administration (FTA) projects, obligation occurs when the FTA grant is awarded. For Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) projects, obligation occurs when a project agreement is executed and the State/grantee requests that the funds be obligated. The FAST ACT also dictates that government spending on transportation should be more transparent to State and Local Officials, as well as to the public. As such, the obligated list of projects must be developed through the cooperative efforts of the state, the metropolitan planning organization (MPO) and the public transportation operators who are responsible for tracking project authorizations and obligations spend during the immediately preceding fiscal year. To address these requirements, this report lists all FHWA transportation projects in the SPC region that were obligated during Federal Fiscal Year 2019 (October 1, 2018 - September 30, 2019). For transit project obligations please see the Listing of Transit Project Obligations FFY 2019 Document. For more information regarding projects listed in this document, please use the MPMS numbers and project descriptions provided below to look up projects on the PennDOT One Map application.

The total federal funding obligated to projects during FFY 2019 was $285,586,618, which was nearly $18,000,000 more than the total obligated in FFY 2018. There was $30,959,976 in savings from previously completed projects, also slightly higher than in FFY 2018, which was deobligated from completed projects and obligated to other projects. The majority of obligated funds were for highway/bridge projects (58.6%), followed by urban transportation projects (15.9%). A $19,000,000 TIGER grant to fund the I-579 “Cap” project in the City of Pittsburgh (see “federal discretionary”) made up 6.6% of the total obligated funds in FFY 2019. Other significant projects that obligated funds in FFY 2019 included the PA 356 Truck Climbing Lane in Westmoreland County ($9,000,000), PA 286 from Rustic Lodge Road to the US 422 Interchange in Indiana County ($6,686,000), Butler Bypass in Butler County ($6,649,471), and Kenmawr Bridge in Swissvale in Allegheny County ($5,000,000). A significant number of landslides in the region in 2018 resulted in a substantial increase of projects obligating federal emergency slide funds in FFY 2019 - $9,000,000 more than the $600,000 in slide funds obligated during FFY 2018. Complete funding amounts are provided in the table, and the funding distribution of obligated funds is illustrated in the pie chart. A comprehensive summary report of individual projects and obligation/ deobligation amounts is included beginning on the fifth page. 3 Annual Listing of Federally Obligated Highway Projects October 1, 2018 to September 30, 2019 TIP Projects Obligated in FY 2019 Click on the fund code for more information 4 Projects by County with Federal Funding Obligated for Fiscal Year 2019 PA DOT MPMS # Project Name Project Description County Phase Fund Cat.

Connecting the Loop presents a range of ways to establish a continuous trail system with acquisition, design and construction that can be phased over the next decade. We offer this as a resource for property owners, planners, developers, public agencies and non-profit organizations, and we urge them to seize moments of opportunity to undertake projects, large and small. For the Riverlife Task Force, the plan will also serve as a guide as we work with public and private stakeholders to develop long and short-term priorities.

    Guiding Change in the Strip Capstone Seminar in Economic Development, Policy and Planning Graduate School of Public and International Affairs (GSPIA) University of Pittsburgh December 2002 GUIDING CHANGE IN THE STRIP University of Pittsburgh Graduate School of Public and International Affairs Capstone Seminar Fall 2002 Contributing Authors: Trey Barbour Sherri Barrier Carter Bova Michael Carrigan Renee Cox Jeremy Fine Lindsay Green Jessica Hatherill Kelly Hoffman Starry Kennedy Deb Langer Beth McCall Beth McDowell Jamie Van Epps Instructor: Professor Sabina Deitrick i ii MAJOR FINDINGS This report highlights the ongoing nature of the economic, social and environmental issues in the Strip District and presents specific recommendations for Neighbors in the Strip (NITS) and policy makers to alleviate problems hindering community development. By offering a multitude of options for decision-makers, the report can serve as a tool for guiding change in the Strip District. Following is a summary of the major findings presented in Guiding Change in the Strip: • The Strip has a small residential population. As of 2000, the population was on 266 residents. Of these residents, there is a significant income gap: There are no residents earning between $25,000 and $35,000 annually. In other words, there are a limited amount of middle-income residents. Furthermore, nearly three-quarters of the 58 families living in the Strip earned less than $25,000 in 1999. These figures represent a segment of the residential population with limited voice in the development of the Strip. There is an opportunity for NITS, in collaboration with the City of Pittsburgh, to increase the presence of these residents in the future of the Strip.

  • Bigelow Boulevard
    Bigelow Boulevard Bigelow Boulevard, shown here in July 1936, runs east-west from downtown Pittsburgh to Oakland. The cut along the face of Bedford Hill required the creation of massive retaining walls to stabilize the hillside. Bigelow Boulevard, originally known as Grant Boulevard, is a three and a half mile "rapid transit" roadway carved into Bedford Hill that connects downtown Pittsburgh with Schenley Park in Oakland. It is a lasting tribute to the city's most famous urban planner, Edward Manning Bigelow, known as the "Father of Pittsburgh Parks." The Boulevard, conceived by Bigelow in 1891, was the beginning of a twelve mile drive, which included Beechwood and Washington Boulevards, in a transit route that connected both Schenley and Highland Parks. Bigelow had an overwhelming desire to establish large scenic parks near the city and make them accessible to the everyday factory workers and their families, a privilege often reserved for the upper class. Edward Bigelow was appointed City Engineer in 1880 and in 1888 became Director of Public Works, a position he held for three terms, the last ending in 1906. During his tenure in office, Bigelow forged major improvements in the City's urban boulevards, waterworks, and parks. Edward Bigelow When Bigelow took office, the only public park in the city was a block-long area along Second Avenue between Grant and Ross Streets, now the ramp of the Blvd of the Allies. Soon after, he quietly began acquiring land in various parts of the city for public park use. In 1889, these parcels became Schenley and Highland Parks.
