VANCOUVER – Clark County Public Works will replace the stop-sign-controlled intersection at Northeast 182nd Avenue and Northeast Risto Road with a roundabout. Other improvements will include reducing the slope at Northeast 199th Street/Northeast Risto Road and Northeast 176th Avenue resurfacing Northeast 199th Street/Northeast Risto Road from Northeast 167th Avenue to the Salmon Creek bridge at Northeast 182nd Avenue. These changes will increase the safety and reliability of travel along this route and reduce traffic congestion.
Residents are invited to learn more about the project at an open house from 6 to 8 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 1. At the open house, staff will share the draft concept during a presentation from 6:30 to 7 p.m. Before and after the presentation, residents are invited to review and discuss the plan with staff. Light refreshments will be provided.
Residents can attend in person or online. The in-person open house will be in the Fire District 3 station, 17718 NE 159th St. The presentation portion of the open house will also be streamed online. A meeting link is available on the project webpage. While registration is not required to attend online, anyone can use the registration link on the webpage to receive an email with the meeting link 15 minutes prior to the open house.
Meeting interpretation, additional translation and other accommodations can be requested by contacting Scott Fakler, project manager, at scott.fakler@clark.wa.gov or (564) 397-4648.
