Sustainable Communities Grants Data compiled from offices at HUD, DOT and EPA Features Auke Bay Loading Facility Agency: DOT
Program: TIGER I
Mode: Freight, Ports, and Rail Infrastructure

Project Description: This will fund Phase II of the Auke Bay Loading Facility in Juneau, which includes an additional half-acre of storage, lighting, security gate and fences; a freighter loading facility and ramp; and a fisheries dock, improving freight transfer activities for Alaska communities that use barge and landing craft as primary marine services. This will help deliver government programs to remote communities and contribute to lower costs of living and improved living standards. The facility is important to serving the needs of the fishing community by reducing the need for long and dangerous voyages around Douglas Island to reach Juneau, and provides almost direct access to Juneau airport for fresh seafood exports.

Crescent Corridor Intermodal Freight Rail Project Agency: DOT
Program: TIGER I
Mode: Freight, Ports, and Rail Infrastructure

Project Description: The Crescent Corridor is a major intermodal freight program centered on the continued development of Norfolk Southern’s rail intermodal route from the Gulf Coast to the Mid-Atlantic. Construction of these new facilities in Memphis and Birmingham includes pad and support tracks, trailer and container parking areas, lead tracks, and related ancillary buildings and features, providing significant new freight capacity from the Southeast through the Mid-Atlantic region, an area currently underserved by intermodal rail. Once fully-developed, the Crescent Corridor will improve domestic rail intermodal service between the Northeast and Southeast and connecting this 2,500-mile network of existing rail lines with regional intermodal freight distribution centers will strengthen domestic and international freight distribution in the Southeast, Gulf Coast and Mid-Atlantic markets.

Project Description: This is a collaborative effort of three regional ports in California to develop and use a marine highway system as an alternative to existing truck and rail infrastructure. The Port of Oakland along with the inland Ports of Stockton and West Sacramento have formed a partnership to provide freight service via barge, primarily for consumer goods moving by ocean vessel and agricultural products grown in Central California. This will improve the quality of life for Northern Californians by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and air pollutants and relieving congestion and wear-and-tear on Northern and Central California’s highways, helping to reduce round-trip and overall truck miles traveled to and from distribution centers and port facilities in the area, with corresponding savings in fuel costs achieved by shipping goods by barge rather than exclusively by truck.

Alameda Corridor East: Colton Crossing Agency: DOT
Program: TIGER I
Mode: Freight, Ports, and Rail Infrastructure

Project Description: The project eliminates the mainline at-grade rail crossing of the Union Pacific Railroad and the BNSF Railway at Colton in San Bernardino County. This crossing is on the major east-west corridor for each of the two carriers, and at its peak in 2006 the crossing handled 129 trains a day. The trains that wait and queue behind the crossing create a major choke point for traffic moving to and from Southern California. This addresses one of the most significant choke points for freight moving into and out of the California ports of Los Angeles/Long Beach and eliminates the need for trains to idle as they wait for a “crossing window,” and reduces delays for motorists at 24 rail-highway grade crossings affected by Colton Crossing railway congestion. Approximately 40 percent of all containerized traffic entering or leaving the United States passes through the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach and more than 60 percent of that volume is moved inland through the L.A. Basin and the vast majority of this volume moves via rail over Colton Crossing.

These bridges are more than 100 years old and can only accommodate train speeds of five miles per hour or less. The bridges were last rated in 1995 as having inadequate superstructures. The bridge replacements are critical to moving freight from the waterfront area, which otherwise has to be moved by truck. Currently, 1300 carloads per year of PCB-contaminated dredge spoils are hauled from the New Bedford Harbor over the freight rail bridges. An additional 500 carloads of freight also depend on the bridges. Replacing the bridges will reduce fuel consumption and provide development opportunities in the waterfront area.

The primary commuter routes closest to downtown will be completed, in some of the communities hardest hit by the current economic downturn including Southwest Philadelphia and Camden, NJ. These paths will help connect residents in these areas to more prosperous communities that provide employment opportunities, including Philadelphia and Cherry Hill, NJ. Costing significantly less per mile than transit or roads, investing in pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure is a cost-effective strategy for reducing traffic congestion, greenhouse gas emissions, and dependence on oil while also providing public health, safety and air quality benefits.

National Gateway Freight Rail Corridor (OH, PA, WV, MD) Agency: DOT
Program: TIGER I
Mode: Freight, Ports, and Rail Infrastructure

Project Description: This package of rail infrastructure and intermodal terminal projects will enhance freight transportation service options along three major freight rail corridors owned and operated by CSX through the Midwest and along the Atlantic coast, allowing trains to carry double- stacked containers, increasing freight capacity and making the corridor more marketable to major East Coast ports and shippers. It doubles rail capacity on a major freight rail corridor with no increase in noise, emissions or train length, with a significant amount of the investments in this corridor coming in economically distressed areas. Allowing for double-stack trains will provide relief to congested rail and highway corridors by enabling trains to carry more freight. The increased capacity and improved economies of scale will provide a cost-effective alternative to long-haul trucking, directly reducing highway congestion and expensive highway maintenance.

Program: FY2011 TIGER
Mode: Freight Rail

Project Description: The project will upgrade 49 miles of state-owned rail line in the Anadarko Basin to more efficiently and safely transport crude oil and gas to the refinement stage. There are few viable options for transporting the oil and gas from this region, and the current rail line cannot meet the current demand.

Sellwood Bridge Replacement  Agency: DOT
Program: FY2011 TIGER
Mode: Road

Project Description: This TIGER award will provide the final piece of funding for the complete replacement of the Sellwood Bridge in Portland, OR. The Sellwood Bridge, constructed in 1925, is structurally deficient and functionally obsolete, and is the only crossing over the Willamette River within a 12-mile urban area. In 2004, the County was forced to limit emergency, truck, and bus vehicle travel across the bridge due to weight restrictions. A new two-lane steel arch bridge will be constructed to replace the existing bridge. This TIGER investment will allow for the reconstruction of the crucial west-end interchange to provide efficient and safe multimodal access to and from the new bridge.
