The city of Washougal’s planned 32nd Street underpass project would provide a grade-separated railroad crossing at 32nd Street, new connector streets in the Town Center, road improvements within the Port of Camas-Washougal’s industrial park, a roundabout at 32nd and Main streets, a signal at 32nd Street and Evergreen Way, and a sidewalk and multi-use path.

City of Washougal leaders are optimistic that they’ll be able to fund their 32nd Street rail crossing project despite initial cost estimates coming in higher than originally projected.
City engineer Scott Collins told the Council during the Nov. 4 workshop that the project is estimated to cost between $69 and $80 million, significantly more than the City’s original estimate of $60 million.
