Gov. Inslee, local leaders break ground on I-90/SR18 interchange improvements project
SNOQUALMIE, Wash. - Gov. Jay Inslee along with tribal and local leaders broke ground Thursday on a project to improve the Interstate 90/State Route 18 interchange.
The Washington Department of Transportation says it will be building a diverging diamond interchange and widening SR 18 to four lanes between the interchange and Deep Creek.
The interchange is one of the busiest in Washington and improvements are meant to keep traffic flowing and improve safety for travelers. SR 18 is one lane in each direction and more than 27,000 vehicles use the highway each day.
Between 2008 and 2021, there were more than 400 collisions on SR 18, involving 740 vehicles. The collisions have resulted in six people being killed and more than 170 people injured, according to a WSDOT study.

If experience means anything, than I-90 will be backed up and I'll be dealing with it in Indiana!
