I-90
Expansion east of Snoqualmie Pass Cascade Mountains
Just east of Snoqualmie Pass in the Cascade Mountains of Washington State, the state Department of Transportation is proposing to expand
Interstate 90 from four lanes to six.
This stretch of freeway cuts across several north-south wildlife
corridors that must be protected and restored to preserve healthy
wildlife populations. State citizens and the US Congress have spent tens
of millions of dollars over the last few years to acquire and protect
habitat within these corridors.
The freeway expansion, known as I-90 Snoqualmie Pass East, can actually
improve the situation for wildlife with new structures that allow
wildlife to safely travel over or under the freeway.
The I-90 Wildlife Bridges Coalition is working with a diverse set of
organizations and agencies to ensure the project meets a high standard
for wildlife connectivity as well as human safety and transportation
efficiency.
