Residents and people who use Highway 305 are invited to learn more and share their thoughts about proposed improvements to the Highway 305-Suquamish Way intersection at a public meeting later this month.

The intersection can sometimes be a clogged mess for travelers driving across the Agate Pass Bridge to Poulsbo and for people coming to Bainbridge Island from the north. Officials said that approximately 21,000 vehicles travel through the intersection each day.

Washington State Department of Transportation staff will host an open house from 5 to 7 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 21 to discuss alternatives being explored to improve traffic flow through the intersection.

No formal presentation is scheduled, and those interested in attending are welcome to come any time during the two-hour open house. The meeting will be held in the Chico Room in the Suquamish Clearwater Casino Resort Hotel.
