Project Overview: ES561
The West Illinois Multimodal Project will add sidewalks to West Illinois and add/upgrade ramps to ADA requirements. In addition, a small roundabout will be installed at the intersection of Meridian Street and West Illinois and the existing signal will be removed. Bike facility markings will be placed on Meridian, Illinois and Girard Streets. Project challenges include limited space in the right-of-way and utility pole conflicts.
This project is funded by the Bellingham Transportation Fund, a Washington State Transportation Improvement Board Grant, and Washington State Complete Streets.
