@brycegreenleaf: 🌉 One of Snohomish County’s most important pieces of infrastructure is finally getting a replacement plan. WSDOT is preparing to replace the aging Highway 2 trestle, the critical connection between Everett and communities across eastern Snohomish County. Here are the details: • ⚠️ WSDOT says the existing trestle has earthquake vulnerabilities and growing traffic problems. • 🚗 The corridor experiences significant daily congestion, especially during peak commute times. • 🚌 The current structure also has limited space for transit and bicycle infrastructure. • 🏗️ WSDOT expects to reveal its preferred replacement design this October or November. • 💰 The entire project is currently estimated to cost around $2 BILLION. • 🤝 Funding could include federal, state, city and county money, with a potential public-private partnership also being explored. • 🚧 Construction could begin as early as 2031, with the full project potentially taking up to a decade to complete. For thousands of people commuting between Everett, Lake Stevens, Snohomish and communities farther east, this could be one of the region’s most consequential transportation projects in decades. What’s the #1 improvement you’d want to see in a new Highway 2 trestle? 👇 🏡 Have real estate questions, or looking to buy or sell a home in Seattle or the outlying suburbs? 😃 I’m happy to help! I’ve been a licensed Realtor for 10 years now and love helping people make the move in and around the Seattle metropolitan area. 👆 Feel free to click the link in my bio to get started.

The proposed concept is 2 lanes in each direction w/ an HOV lane which is not much different than what we have now. Not sure why they wouldn't expand it with the population growth especially by the time it's completed

Wait for it to fall down then fix it. It’ll only take him six months to build it. In about half the cost.
