Rock breaking and roadway excavation at Park & Ride construction site above Orcas ferry landing.

Roadway excavation and rock breaking activities have made significant progress at the site of a new Park and Ride lot above Orcas ferry landing. Utility relocation is active on Orcas Hill Road.

Rock breaking is scheduled to continue on site next week. Our contractor will continue roadway excavation bringing the surface closer to subgrade. Material produced during rock breaking activities will stay on site to build the roadway and parking areas.

Utility relocation activities will continue next week on Orcas Hill Rd. Traffic control will be on site as necessary, please drive slowly.
