Project overview
The project will install a compact roundabout at the intersections of SR 26 and First Avenue. The I2 crash prevention program for systemic treatment at intersection selected this location for a compact roundabout due to existing crash patterns.
What to expect
This project is in the design phase. The community will be informed simultaneously about this project and about a nearby project that will build a roundabout on the intersection of SR 17 and Cunningham Road.
Travelers on SR 26 and First Avenue will encounter temporary signals, one-way alternating traffic, and detour routes for side streets. Traffic may also be controlled with flaggers.
WSDOT will ensure the public receives comprehensive information about and impacts for both projects.
The map shows the area near intersection in Othello, Wash., of SR 26 and First Avenue, where a new roundabout will be built in 2025.
