WHPacific Adopts-A-Road in Snohomish County, WA
On December 12, 2009, volunteers from WHPacific’s Bothell, WA office gathered at the Ash Way and 18th Avenue West Roundabout in the area of Lynnwood for our inaugural WHPacific Adopt-a-Road event!

Fortunately, the weather cooperated with clear, cold conditions.  After a fresh, hot cup of joe and a bite of warm gingerbread, the hardy volunteers set up traffic control at the roundabout, scoured the roadway corridor for trash, and raked leaves from the landscaped areas.  The total take was about 10 bags of leaves and 12 bags of trash.  All of the volunteers enjoyed their time on this project and the road has never looked better.

The Bothell office chose this project to support the community and provide a necessary service to Snohomish County. During 2006 and 2007, WHPacific provided surveying, base mapping, traffic analysis, and engineering services to prepare preliminary and final design PS&E documents for this three-legged, single lane roundabout. The project was awarded the 2009 ACEC Washington Bronze in Exceeding Owner/Client Needs.

Thank you to the following people: Mark Van Wormer, Brian Way, Jim Brown, Celeste Low, Charles Palmer, Kim Wilson, Wes Holden, Alex Mason, Ryan Frostrad, and David Field.  Additional thanks to Brian Way for working out the Adopt-a-Road arrangements with Snohomish County.
