Existing ConditionsWashington Way is a main route through the City and is functionally classified as a Major Collector. This street is used to access Interstate 90 and several businesses located in the City's core. It is also an important farm-to-market route for trucks accessing the City and I-90, and sees a high percentage of trucks. It is classified as a T-3 truck route. It also serves as the only access to George Elementary School. The PCR of the road is 41 and the road shows significant amounts of rutting and alligator cracking in the wheelpaths of each lane. Royal Anne Drive, which is the extension of Washington Way, was rebuilt in 2019, so the completion of this project will complete the improvements on this critical route through the City. |

Summary of Improvements
- Restores structural condition
Description of Improvements
The roadway will be pulverized, graded, and treated with cement treated base prior to paving. This will add significant strength to the roadway section to accommodate the significant truck traffic on this road. This option will be cheaper than providing subgrade repair in both wheelpaths along each lane for the length of the rutting and alligator cracking. It will also provide a more uniform pavement structure, and the cement treated base will provide more strength than a simple overlay with subgrade repair would provide. In addition to the improvements on Washington Way, the approach to Washington Way on West Montmorency Boulevard will be regraded because it is currently too steep for vehicles to accelerate from the stop sign during icy conditions. Curbing and storm drainage structures will also be added at this intersection approach to eliminate the ponding which currently forms in that location after storm events.
