The resolution, prepared by councilwoman Jennifer McDaniel, mentions alternatives include the possible addition of new bridges of adequate height east of the I-205 bridge and west of the I-5 bridge.

"Final paving is very weather-dependent, but grinding can be done in pretty much any weather," said WSDOT Project Engineer Chris Tams. "Getting the grinding done up front means we can be ready to take advantage of every warm, dry day that comes along and get a good-quality layer of asphalt."
