Overview
WSDOT built a high occupancy vehicle lane in each direction for carpools, vanpools and buses between South 284th Street and South 272nd Street on State Route 99 north of Federal Way.
 | Improves Safety
Better lighting, raised sidewalks and landscaped strips will enhance safety in the area.
|
 | Relieves Congestion
The new HOV lanes will mean less congestion for carpools, vanpools, and buses.
|
 | Protects Environment
A new underground concrete tank will store and clean highway runoff.
|
 | Economic Incentive
Less congestion translates to a greater economic benefit.
