The Olympia City Council approved a $250,000 infrastructure project on July 1, 2026, to repair roads at five downtown intersections. The project will focus on repairs at 4th Ave & Capitol Way, 6th Ave & Pioneer Square, and three other intersections identified in the city's 2026 infrastructure plan. Councilmember Maria Lopez said the repairs would improve safety and reduce pothole complaints from residents. The funding comes from the city's Transportation Improvement Fund, which is financed by local vehicle registration fees. The work is scheduled to begin in September 2026 and take approximately three months to complete.
