LAKE TAHOE, Nev. – The Tahoe Transportation District (TTD) Board of Directors approved the award of a construction contract for the SR 28 North Parking Project (Phase 2 of the Tunnel Creek Parking Project), advancing coordinated efforts to improve parking management, safety, and multimodal access along SR 28.
The Board awarded the construction contract to F.W. Carson Company of Incline Village, Nevada, in an amount not to exceed $2,385,162.20, and approved a 10 percent construction contingency of $238,516.22. The Board also authorized Additive Alternates 1 and 2, totaling $322,729.40, with a 10 percent contingency of $32,272.94, depending upon the availability of funding.
The project is being delivered in partnership with the Nevada Department of Transportation, Washoe County, Tahoe Regional Planning Agency, Nevada Division of State Lands, Nevada Divisions State Parks and other agencies to address parking demand and transportation safety in one of the region’s most heavily traveled corridors.
“This project reflects what can be accomplished through strong regional collaboration,” said Jim Marino, executive director of the Tahoe Transportation District. “By working closely with our partners, we’re improving safety while supporting sustainable transportation solutions that benefit the environment.”
The SR 28 North Parking Project, entirely located within the NDOT right-of-way along State Route 28, will enhance safety, improve traffic flow, and support alternative transportation options in a year-round recreation corridor. Construction is expected to begin in Spring 2026 after final coordination.
TTD will continue coordinating with partner agencies to provide construction updates as the project moves forward at www.tahoetransportation.org/projects/sr-28-north-parking-project/
