QUINCY White Trail Road will be closed at its intersection with State Route 28 about eight miles west of Quincy, beginning today. Construction crews will be installing a roundabout at the intersection.
The new roundabout will be a single lane in each direction, while the total project cost was estimated at about $2.8 million.
Miguel Castillo of WSDOT, the project engineer, said SR 28 will be what he called the “preferred route” during construction.
