Agenda Analysis

Analysis

This resolution approves the first amendment to an intergovernmental agreement between the Tennessee Department of Transportation (“TDOT”) and the Nashville Department of Transportation and Multimodal Infrastructure (“NDOT”) for traffic signal communication upgrades along Broadway and West End from 1st Avenue to Interstate 440.

 

The agreement approved through Resolution No. RS2021-1103 provided traffic signal communication upgrades along 3.25 miles of West End. These upgrades would result in an estimated reduction of 5,850 kilograms per year of emissions.

 

The proposed amendment would extend the agreement term from December 31, 2025, to December 31, 2027. The amendment would also replace Exhibit A to the agreement related to the project description and costs.
