Interstate 5 in Fife has a new, bright look, and the Washington State Department of Transportation hopes it’s enough to catch your attention.
In early June, the department painted half of the standard white lane lines with orange in the Highway 167 Completion Project work zone between Porter and Wapato ways as part of a new pilot.
I have noticed and found them very distracting as I wonder wtf they mean. Distracting drivers doesn’t seem particularly wise to me.
Agreed, you would think polling or simulations would have been the first order of business rather than mucking around with in use roadways.
