About the Project
Improvements are planned to 1.5 miles of 198th Avenue East between 144th Street East and 120th Street East (CRP 5675). The project will be built in phases as Tehaleh development occurs and also accommodate future widening by Pierce County.
The initial, or Phase 1, project has been split into two segments:
Segment 1 will construct the roadway consisting of four lanes between 144th Street East and 128th Street East. The construction of segment 1 is complete.
Segment 2 will construct the roadway consisting of four lanes between 128th Street East and 120th Street East. The construction of segment 2 will begin in Spring 2021 within the existing right-of-way and any parcels that we have completed acquisition.
