SPOKANE, Wash. — If you need to travel through the Hamilton Corridor near Gonzaga, you may want to give yourself some extra time.
Construction is back up and running from Desmet Avenue all the way to North Foothills Drive. The project, which started last summer, officially resumed on Monday. It’s expected to continue through the end of spring.
There are typically 30,000 cars a day that drive through the Hamilton Corridor, making it one of the busiest areas in the city.
Over the next few months, city crews will be adding dedicated left-turn pockets and signals along six intersections within the area. They’ll also add ADA-compliant ramps at all intersections between Desmet and North Foothills. It’s a project the city says has been a long time coming and will help keep people safe behind the wheel.
