Residents Invited To Comment On “Safety Rest Area Strategic Plan”

Grays Harbor and Pacific County residents are invited to comment on WSDOT’s draft of its “Safety Rest Area Strategic Plan”.

Grays Harbor and Pacific County residents are invited to comment on WSDOT’s draft of its “Safety Rest Area Strategic Plan”. The strategic plan identifies modern day needs and can also be used by state leaders to develop possible next steps for short-term and long-term rest area decisions. The last strategic plan was updated in 2008 – nearly 15 years ago – and the needs of travelers have changed and continue to evolve. Statewide, 87% of the rest area facilities are rated in critical condition. More than half of the rest area buildings will be 50 years or older by 2031. The public comment period is available through 5 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 30. A link to the online public comment page can be found on our website.
