New roundabout planned for US 2 through Sultan [View all]

SULTAN — Changes are coming to U.S. 2 in Sultan.

A new roundabout at Old Owen Road is slated to begin construction next spring. The roundabout will include crosswalks and new curbs.

It’s a $16.65 million state project, with money coming from the 2015 Connecting Washington funding package from the state Legislature. The 16-year program is funded primarily by an 11.9-cent gas tax.

“We are supportive of this important project to improve safety and mobility through the City of Sultan,” Mayor Russell Wiita said in a press release. “It is important that the state continue to invest in the US-2 corridor as one of only two year-round routes for crossing the Cascade Mountains from Puget Sound. As the population in the Greater Puget Sound region continues to grow at rapid rates, these needs will continue to grow.”
