East Wenatchee Residents Invited to Discuss SR 28 Corridor Project in Upcoming Public Meetings

The Washington State Department of Transportation is inviting residents and travelers in the East Wenatchee area to join discussions about the upcoming SR 28 East Wenatchee Corridor Project. The public meetings scheduled for November 20 and 21 are intended to demystify the project’s objectives, which primarily focus on enhancing safety and streamlining traffic flow along Sunset Highway between 9th Street and Hadley Street.

The endeavor is to transform the existing two-lane highway into a four-lane roadway, complete with sidewalks and intersection overhauls that promise improved pedestrian access. The construction, slated for a 2028-2029 timeframe, represents a stride forward in infrastructure modernization.

Details circulated by the DOT highlight two in-person open house events, which will occupy the cafeteria of Cascade Elementary School at 2330 N. Baker Ave. The department has stressed, however, that interested parties need only drop by once, as identical information will be shared during both sessions. Furthermore, language access is being offered with assurances that Spanish speakers will be accommodated at the gathering.

Anticipating a diverse turnout, the events are structured with an informal touch — doors swing wide at 4 p.m. with no formal presentation on the agenda. Instead, attendees will be met by informational tables staffed by project experts ready to field queries on the proposed enhancements. For those keen on staying abreast of future developments, a station to sign up for updates will also be in place, according to the
