WSDOT Says Bigelow Gulch Work Not Done Correctly

The County's project to upgrade Bigelow Gulch Road has run into a problem.

A draft report from the Washington State Department of Transportation says the county right-of-way office’s work was done poorly enough that two phases of the project aren’t eligible for federal reimbursement.

County officials say they will work to fix the damage and don't believe the project is ready to be scrapped. The Spokesman-Review has the full story.
