Maple Valley to host open house to discuss improvements to Witte Road

The city is updating the Witte Road Corridor Plan for the sections of road from state Route 516 to Southeast 249th Place and from Southeast 240th Place to state Route 169.

The city of Maple Valley will host an open house from 5 to 7 p.m. on July 17 at Lake Wilderness Lodge to discuss improvements to Witte Road.

The city is updating the Witte Road Corridor Plan for the sections of road from state Route 516 to Southeast 249th Place and from Southeast 240th Place to state Route 169.

The basis for the update will be the 2001 Witte Road Corridor Study, the Maple Valley Non-motorized Transportation Plan which is currently in draft form, and the 2011 Transportation Plan.

The plan update will focus on providing pedestrian, bike, and intersection improvement as well as reflecting the character of the community.

The revised plan will identify priority projects for future construction.

The Lodge is located at 22500 Southeast 248th Street in Maple Valley.
