Paving Starts On New I-5 HOV Lanes
August 2010 - WSDOT has started paving new carpool lanes on I-5 that will help ease congestion this fall in Pierce County.
The stimulus-funded construction project is 70 percent complete and is on schedule and on budget. Since the project began in August 2009, crews have completed widening in the median and outside shoulders, built new I-5 bridges and installed high-performance barrier in the median.
The new HOV lanes are scheduled to open to traffic in October.
