The intersection is still an active construction zone as landscaping, permanent stripping and illumination work continues
VANCOUVER – Clark County Public Works has reopened the intersection at Northeast 119th Street and Northeast 152nd Avenue as the construction of the single-lane roundabout nears completion. The intersection is still an active construction zone as landscaping, permanent stripping and illumination work continues. Drivers are reminded to slow down for construction workers.
The intersection has been the site of several severe crashes in the last 10 years, resulting in multiple serious injuries and two fatalities. Due to the number and severity of crashes, the intersection was identified as a high priority for reconstruction to minimize crash risk and severity. Changing the intersection to a roundabout requires all vehicles to slow down and also reduces the risk of head-on and T-bone (side-impact) collisions.
The project was supported by County Road Funds and partners, including the Federal Highway Administration. The total project cost is approximately $4.5 million.
