--High-rise Curb Splits Interstate 5--
Work on a concrete divider strip separating the northbound and southbound lanes of Interstate 5 has progressed from North Ft. Lewis to 56th Street in Tacoma. The project will be complete when the divider is in place all the way to the Puyallup River bridge. Most of the divider is made of pre-cast concrete, although some sections are poured on the spot. The project also includes illumination in some spots. Division of the freeway adds up to a $2,320,000 contract for Woodworth & Co., Inc., of Tacoma.
