Regional Transportation 2024
Regional Transportation 2024
Teton County, the Town of Jackson and partnering agencies and departments have a variety of transportation projects in various phases of planning, design and construction. In an effort to get your feedback on multiple projects and services being discussed, planned and built, we encourage you to come to the FIRST EVER Jackson/Teton County Regional Transportation Expo. Talk face-to-face with representatives from Teton County Public Works, the Town of Jackson Public Works, WYDOT, Jackson Hole Airport, START, Teton Village, and many more! Whether you want to learn about new projects, comment on existing ones or share ideas about transportation needs in our County, we hope to see you there! Note that many of these projects may have standalone public meetings in the future; the Expo is an opportunity to hear about many of the transportation projects happening around Teton County.
Here is your chance to help plan for our future!

Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A)
Teton County and the Town of Jackson were awarded a US Department of Transportation grant through the Safe Streets and Roads for All program (SS4A) to develop a Comprehensive Safety Action Plan that will prioritize projects and policies to improve safety and mobility for all users of the region’s transportation system. The SS4A project is a multi-year planning effort that will feature extensive public engagement with a focus on identifying improvements for active transportation networks. In addition to the Safety Action Plan, the project will update the Town of Jackson Community Streets Plan and create a new set of Transportation Engineering Design Standards. The Comprehensive Safety Action Plan will enable the Town and County to be eligible for future implementation funding through the SS4A program. Sign up here for updates of the process.
Wildlife Crossings
In 2022, Teton County allocated voter-approved SPET funds for wildlife crossings to a design project encompassing three priority areas as identified in the Wildlife Crossings Master Plan. Traditionally, wildlife crossing projects are prioritized in areas that overlap with and can be integrated into upcoming highway projects led by the Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT). These three priority segments were not included in either WYDOT’s short- or long-term transportation plans. Therefore, Teton County decided to advance them as standalone plans which can then either be implemented independently or as part of future, WYDOT highway improvement projects.
Modernizing Mobility for West Jackson
This study will evaluate alternatives for a transportation network that implements the transportation connectivity objectives of the Northern South Park Neighborhood Plan while rehabilitating and modernizing existing rights-of-way and fulfilling the policy directive to make walking, biking, transit, and carpooling more convenient than driving alone.
As a joint venture of Teton County and the Town of Jackson, Modernizing Mobility for West Jackson will create a plan for bicycle and pedestrian improvements; consider upgrades to our roads, sidewalks, and intersections; and determine the best layout for future connectivity.
The project team will be available at the Expo. A digital public meeting (in English, Espanol, and other languages via Google translate) is also available online: https://modernizingmobility.konveio.com/
Gregory Lane Corridor
The Gregory Lane Project will feature a complete overhaul of the corridor, including transportation, multi mobility, sewer/water infrastructure upgrades, and addition of a new storm water system.
Overall project goals will be met through:
- Development and implementation of a Community Engagement plan to gather input and perspective from stakeholders and community members.
- Provide a Complete Street Program including critical design elements, which may include: sidewalk(s), street lighting, parking, right-of-way constraints, safe pedestrian crossings, and landscape elements.
- Improve water and wastewater utility systems within the corridor.
- Install a storm water conveyance system with storm water treatment solutions.
- Improve Safe Routes to School for mobility within the corridor.
