SPOKANE, Wash. — The Washington State Department of Transportation launched a new project that aims to reconnect the East Central Spokane neighborhood.
The Liberty Park Land Bridge project aims to connect the neighborhood by creating a land bridge over I-90. Once complete, people will be able to walk, bike and recreate on the bridge.
WSDOT says this project will also restore community gathering spaces that were lost when I-90 was put in place in the 1950s.
To help with planning and design of this land bridge, WSDOT is forming a Community Design Collaborative that will ensure community interests and experiences are incorporated into the project’s planning and design process.
Applications to join the Community Design Collaborative will be accepted until March 23. Anyone who works, lives, learns, recreates or runs a business in the East Central neighborhood is allowed to join.
