This project represents the western half of the final segment of the SE 1st Street corridor to be improved between SE 164th and 192nd Avenues. Over the last decade years, Columbia Tech Center has continued to build out with several big box retail pads, a Clark College satellite campus, the Vancouver Clinic, a variety of housing developments, and other commercial and office development. Portions of Section 30 and the remaining corners at the intersection of SE 192nd Ave. and 1st St. have discussed preliminary development plans. The City of Vancouver recently annexed Section 30 and is developed a subarea plan for the area the plan anticipates over 2M SF employment space, 1.8M SF mixed use, 400K SF retail, 180K SF government, and 500 housing units, tremendous continued growth. 1st St. is inadequate to serve this scale of urban development and increasing traffic volumes with only two lanes little curb, gutter, and sidewalk few safe pedestrian crossings no continuous adjacent sidewalks and no bike facilities.

Project Description
This project will finish the western half of the SE 1st Street corridor between SE 164th and 192nd Avenues, connecting to recently installed improvements east of 192nd Ave. The design is anticipated to include an access-restricted three-lane section for motor vehicles between approximately 168th and 176th Aves., where the right-of-way is narrow (approx. 60'), existing homes are right up against the right-of-way, and BPA transmission structures line the south side of the road. The design includes protected facilities for people walking and biking, with a proposed landscaping strip separating a five-foot pervious concrete bike path and a six-foot concrete sidewalk from the street. East of roughly 176th Ave., the roadway will be five motor vehicle lanes with bike lanes and detached sidewalks, and possibly additional lanes at the approaches to 192nd (when the eastern half of the corridor is completed) and 164th Aves. Today the roadway is two motor vehicle lanes with gravel shoulders in most areas, although there are spot frontage improvements where development has occurred. Hazardous roadside fixed objects are omnipresent off the gravel shoulder.
