CTS completed the surveying and mapping for this project, and designed roadway and sidewalk improvements on Mashell Avenue and SR 161, including a new Town-Center Plaza that has now been constructed.
The project included community involvement, close coordination with WSDOT, preparation of a NEPA Environmental Classification Summary, drainage design, traffic signals and illumination, landscape design and traffic control plans.
The four principal components of the project were:
- Design of a new Town-Center Plaza, including visitor center, simulated-wood deck, fountain, restrooms, lawn, raingarden, porous concrete parking areas, etc.
- Reconstruction of the SR 161/Center Street Intersection, including additional channelization, traffic signals and lighting.
- Reconstruction of Mashell Avenue from Center Street to Lynch Street, including curbs, gutters, sidewalks, planter strips, and illumination.
- Rechannelization of the southbound SR 161 exit onto Mashell Avenue.
