Right now, you can finally see physical construction of what the Washington State Department of Transportation has dubbed the North Spokane Corridor project throughout Northeast Spokane. To some drivers, of course, the closed roads and detours are an annoyance. But to many others, it’s a sign of long-awaited progress. I’m just glad that they’re trying, that they’re going in that direction. And I don’t want to see anything stop or delay it, funding or anything else, Sherri Davey, owner of Heavenly Special Teas in Hillyard said. We’re growing so fast. We’re going to have commuters. And we don’t need the congestion in downtown, we don’t need the congestion going through Spokane. We need a freeway. So it’s about time is all I can say, and I wish they would hurry!”
