Several members of the North Bank Masonic Lodge #182 are upset about the addition of a concrete median along Washougal River Road. Washougal City Engineer Rob Charles said the median helps mitigate the new one-way driveway out of the Salvation Army (pictured).

Several members of the North Bank Masonic Lodge #182 are frustrated by a roadblock that prevents drivers leaving the lodge from turning south onto Washougal River Road.

Lodge Secretary Jim Cobb told Washougal City Council members during a council meeting June 12 that the Masons enjoyed vehicular access to and from their lodge building onto northbound and southbound Washougal River Road for 47 years without incident, but that a median now blocks their ability to access the southbound lanes.
