Main Street In Colfax To Be Reduced To One Lane In Each Direction With Center Turn Lane-WA Allocates 4.6 Million Dollars For Work
Main Street in downtown Colfax will be reconfigured to one-lane of traffic in each direction as part of a project that’s received millions of dollars in state funding. The Washington Transportation Improvement Board has allocated a 4.6 million dollar grant to pay for most of the work. The project will turn Main in Colfax from two lanes in each direction down to one in each direction and add a center two-way left turn lane. The work will also add bike lanes and crosswalk bulb outs, remove and replace sight obstructing trees and add benches, trash cans and planters. The work is set to be complete by the fall of 2028. The City of Colfax’s local match is about a quarter million dollars bringing the total cost of the project to about 5 million dollars.
