2023-24 Northwest Regional Pavement Repairs and Breakaway Cable Terminal

Snoqualmie, WALocal News

The 2023-24 Northwest Regional Pavement Repairs and Breakaway Cable Terminal project is set to start in March 2024 and will focus on updating 24 guardrails and impact attenuators across major highways in Washington State, specifically Interstates 5, 90, and 405, as well as US 2 and State Routes 522 and 527. The project features the installation of breakaway cable terminals, which are crucial for enhancing roadside safety in areas facing oncoming traffic. In addition to guardrail updates, previous regional projects have already improved a five-mile stretch of State Route 18, sealing cracks and preserving roadway integrity. The ongoing work will also involve repairing 27 ramps at 12 interchanges in the vicinity, ensuring efficient traffic flow and safety measures are upheld. Notably, the project will retrofit curb ramps to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act, enhancing accessibility for individuals with disabilities.

Scheduled work will take place in key areas such as SeaTac, Seattle, Tukwila, Kirkland, and Bothell, ensuring extensive regional coverage. With the project expected to continue into May 2024, it highlights a significant commitment to improving infrastructure and roadway safety in the Northwest region. Overall, this initiative represents an important investment in transportation and public safety.
