Design Construction Impacts
The Dryden community has been requesting this signal for a number of years. This signal was also identified as part of the Corridor Safety Study conducted on US 2/97 between Peshastin and Wenatchee in June of 2002. There have been several meetings in the past with the community concerning the signal. As part of this project an on-connection ramp from a frontage road will be closed.
