Open house Feb. 25 to showcase transportation options for Westgate area

Information on the SR 104 study, especially related to transportation facilities for the Westgate area, will be presented at an open house Wednesday, Feb. 25 from 5-7 p.m. in the Brackett Room (third floor) of City Hall, 121 Fifth Ave. N.

The open house will include two separate sets of displays, one for the SR 104 study and one for a much broader Comprehensive Plan update. Both planning efforts are occurring simultaneously and both address transportation issues.

The SR 104 study (“Complete Streets Analysis”) began in 2014. It has focused first on recommendations for the Westgate portion of the highway because of future development and transportation issues being considered there.

Later phases of this study will look at other parts of the SR 104 corridor, including where the highway meets the City’s waterfront. A final draft of the full study is expected this summer.

Transportation Issues for SR 104 include traffic levels, safety needs, right-of-way treatment, and pedestrian and bicycle access. An oral summary of the project will be provided at 6 p.m.

For more information, contact Bertrand Hauss, Transportation Engineer, at 425-771-0220, Ext. 1328.
