I-5 - Concrete Pavement Improvement Kickoff
WSDOT materials engineer Tom Baker addresses the crowd at the concrete panel replacement kickoff event in Lacey.
The pavement on I-5 through Thurston and Pierce counties is more than half a centuryold and doubled its expected 20-year design life. To address this issue, WSDOT is replacing 295 concrete panels on 25.5 miles of I-5 between Martin Way in Lacey and 48th Street in Tacoma to create a smoother driving surface with fewer bumps and ruts.
Work is scheduled to begin March 29 and end in September 2010.
