Study focuses on corridor planning and environmental conditions
LACEY – Community members have an opportunity to provide feedback on strategies aimed at improving commutes and environmental conditions through the Interstate 5 corridor in Thurston and Pierce Counties.
The Washington State Department of Transportation has created an online open house focusing on operations and intersection improvements on and off I-5 from Exit 99 in Tumwater to Exit 116 in DuPont. The strategies are a result of the Planning and Environmental Linkages study.
Participants of the online open house will view strategies that include potential projects to widen I-5 and increase vehicle capacity and multimodal opportunities. There are also strategies aimed at improving resiliency on outlying state highways in the event of a closure on I-5.
Feedback will be accepted starting today, Monday, March 14, through Monday, March 28.
