The Chelan Douglas 2050 Regional Transportation Improvement Plan identifies 5th St NE, from N Lyle Ave to the East Wenatchee city center, as a key multimodal corridor. Within the city limits, 5th St NE has undergone significant improvements in recent years to address pedestrian and bicycle traffic. With these improvements, East Wenatchee plans to finish the remaining sidewalk gaps in the next few years. From N Kentucky Ave to N Lyle Ave, 5th St NE is listed as a deficient pedestrian route that does not meet MMLOS standards. This segment serves two primary schools and one high school. Intersections are not currently illuminated.

Project Description
Add pedestrian and bike facilities on both sides of the road. The westbound bike lane (downhill) is proposed to be shared (sharrow) while the eastbound lane (uphill) will be a designated bike lane. Six(6) foot sidewalks are proposed on both sides and will connect with City of East Wenatchees proposed crosswalk facilities at N Kentucky Ave and 5th St NE. On the north side, Douglas County proposes to match the design of the City sidewalk for visual consistency. Speeds are proposed to be reduced from 30 mph to 25 mph to decrease impacts to multimodal traffic. Illuminated intersections and ADA compliant ramps will improve intersection access and safety for pedestrians.
