Purpose

WSDOT is replacing the existing two-way stop at the intersection of State Route 702 and 8th Avenue South with a modern roundabout. The intersection currently has stop control on the northbound and southbound legs, and a span wire mounted, four-head flashing beacon. This project will remove the stop signs and beacon system and provide new intersection control with a roundabout that fits within the intersection footprint.
