Atkinson Wins the I-405/SR 167 Direct Connector Project
June 2, 2016
Renton, WA - WSDOT awarded Atkinson the $116 million I-405/SR 167 Interchange Direct Connector project in Renton, WA.
Atkinson will construct a direct connector flyover bridge to join the northbound and southbound SR 167 high occupancy toll (HOT) lanes with the I-405 high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes by reconstructing portions of SR 167 and I-405 to accommodate the new direct connector ramps in the median. The project scope of work includes seismic retrofitting and widening the existing I-405 bridge over SR 515 and replacing the Rolling Hills Creek culvert with a fish passable structure under SR 167.
The team will also move an existing noise wall to a new location and construct retaining walls, stormwater facilities, utilities, concrete and asphalt pavement, illumination, intelligent transportation systems, toll system infrastructure, and mange traffic control on this high-volume interchange.
Project completion is scheduled for May 2019.
