US 2 Upper Wenatchee Valley Transportation Corridor Study

As one of two major state highway corridors over the Central Cascades, US 2 serves as a route to desirable locations across the state. US 2 also serves as a vital regional and local connection for the communities of Leavenworth, Dryden, Peshastin, Cashmere, and Wenatchee, while operating as a “main street” within the City of Leavenworth. In response to a steadily-growing tourism economy and the associated demands on the US 2 highway corridor through the Upper Wenatchee Valley, CDTC and WSDOT undertook a study to recommend transportation strategies that are supported and, over time, implemented by WSDOT and local governments. The goal of this study is to identify realistic and implementable transportation capital enhancements that provide year-round benefit and management strategies to improve transportation for all modes along the corridor. The study emphasizes the unique traffic and safety issues associated with traffic that peaks during summer weekends and festivals in the City of Leavenworth rather than during a typical weekday afternoon.
