** Spokane Valley Announces 2024 Construction Projects for Infrastructure Improvement
Spokane Valley's 2024 construction projects are set to significantly improve local infrastructure and community safety. Key initiatives include the Pines Road/BNSF Grade Separation Project, which will separate a railroad crossing to reduce accidents while also constructing a roundabout and trailhead for better accessibility. The Sprague Stormwater and Multi-Modal Improvements Project aims to retrofit existing stormwater systems and enhance traffic signals, improving pedestrian and transit access along E. Sprague Avenue. The Flora Cross Country Park project will create a competitive racecourse with facilities, boosting recreational opportunities.
Additional intersection improvements will add left and right turn lanes at the Pines Road and Mission Avenue intersection for smoother traffic flow. Reflective backplates will be installed at 16 intersections to enhance safety and visibility. The city is also committed to ongoing residential pavement preservation to maintain neighborhood roads. These projects collectively highlight Spokane Valley's dedication to improving urban infrastructure and community well-being.
