Intersection Improvements Continue in Central Richland

The first intersection improvement on Thayer and Williams is complete and now it's time for the second to begin on Stevens Drive and Symons Street.
 
The intersection will close during construction, which should be complete by the beginning of June. The detour routes are noted above in yellow on the map. 
 
The 2025 Intersection Safety Improvement Projects include: 

• Mini roundabout at:
  • Swift Boulevard & Wright Avenue (early June 2025 – mid August 2025)
• Curb extensions, along with new signage, pavement markings, and traffic control measures at:
  • Goethals Drive & Torbett Street
  • Wright Avenue & Lee Boulevard
• Advanced Warning System at Kennedy Road & Duportail Street, which will alert drivers to stopped vehicles at the intersection or turning onto Duportail Street reducing congestion and the risk of accidents.
  ​
  

These projects are designed to improve traffic flow and safety across the city.
