An open house to discuss planned improvements at 76th Avenue W. and Highway 99 is set for Thursday.
City officials will take comments from the public on that project and on the city’s long-term transportation plan.
The open house begins at 4:30 p.m. at City Hall, 121 Fifth Ave. N. Presentations are planned for 5:30 and 6:15 p.m., with each session followed by the opportunity to provide input on the plans.
The Highway 99 project involves extending 228th Street SW from 76th Avenue W. to Highway 99.
A raised-center median will be installed on the highway near 76th Avenue W. to prevent left turns across three northbound lanes of the highway.
