OKANOGAN – The Washington State Department of Transportation is exploring how to better connect Omak, Okanogan and Riverside with safer and more comfortable access to walk, bike and roll in. The focus is on locations along US 97 and State Route 215.
WSDOT is studying three plans developed from community engagement. Now, the agency wants public feedback to help pick an option the community believes will provide the most benefits and best connects these communities.
Survey responses will be used to develop the concept design and cost estimates to seek funding for final design and construction. This study is funded by the Sandy Williams Connecting Communities grant. The grant focuses on improving active transportation connections for people walking, biking and rolling along and across state highways.
