NE Munch Road is a high speed, rural major collector (R-2), running north-south from NE Cedar Creek Road to NE 414th Street and is used as a collector between State Route 503 and Woodland, Washington. This 0.55 mile section of roadway is identified as a non-truck route and has an ADT of 900.
Pavement distresses primarily included weathering, rutting and alligator cracking, and an asphalt overlay was needed for structural adequacy. There were also 3 reported injury accidents between 2012 and 2014. All accidents were related to fixed objects.
This project installed an asphalt overlay, replaced and added new guardrail, and improved sight distance on NE Munch Road (NE Cedar Creek Road to NE 414th Street). The improvements included reconstruction of a vertical curve on NE 414th Road, sight distance improvements, guardrail installation, removal of a rock face to improve visibility, and application of a structural asphalt overlay with a safety edge to enhance safety, maneuverability, and longevity. Existing utility poles and roadside objects have been relocated or protected where feasible, reducing accident risk.
