Overview
We resurfaced 17 miles of Mount Baker Highway, from Britton Road
(milepost 2.98) to Coal Creek Bridge (milepost 19.27). We also
resurfaced a half-mile of SR 9, from SR 542 (milepost 84) to Smith Creek
Bridge (milepost 84.46).
We repaved the highway with a
process known as Hot In-Place asphalt paving. The process recycles the existing asphalt. It involves a train of equipment that heats, loosens,
removes, mixes, lays down and compacts the asphalt in one swoop.
 | Improves Safety
The asphalt was old and worn out. In order to preserve the
roadway and extend its lifespan, we resurfaced. We also made safety improvements to the roadway - updated signs and guardrails, refreshed the lane lines,
replaced raised pavement markers, and installed rumble strips
