Signs serve as reminders to support businesses located along E Street, while driving at or less than the speed limit. The $8.1 million construction project includes the conversion of the road width to two through-lanes and a center left turn lane, and the addition of bike lanes and sidewalks from Sixth to 32nd streets. It is expected to be completed in August.

An unscheduled debate occurred last night, involving Washougal Mayor Sean Guard and several city council members, regarding a recent lunchtime meeting about the “E” Street project.

Councilman Michael Delavar questioned why the city’s public works committee – consisting of Rod Morris, Molly Coston and Paul Greenlee – attended the March 14 meeting with “E” Street merchants.
