Fireproof paneling in the Veterans Drive tunnel
Looking into the Veterans Drive Tunnel under Interstate 5 in Kent, WA, workers install paneling along the inner walls of the tunnel. The metal frame under the panels supports these fireproof panels.
Attaching the framing requires a work platform and multiple crew members to safely put the panels and metal rods in place. This work is a part of the State Route 509 Completion project, which connects SR 509 to I-5.
The SR 509 Completion project is part of the Puget Sound Gateway program, which completes the missing links in Washington state's highway and freight network.
