• Abstract:
  For the SR 14 and Dog Mountain Congestion and Safety Study, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) partnered with the United States Forest Service (USFS) and the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) (together, the "project partners") to study conges on and safety in two parts: (1) recreation access sites along an 80-mile stretch of Washington State Route (SR) 14 and (2) a detailed examination of options to relocate the Dog Mountain Trailhead. SR 14, a two-lane rural and rolling highway, is the primary access route to many of Washington’s popular recreation areas within the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area (CRGNSA). SR 14 is a scenic corridor rich in natural, cultural, and recreational resources, and provides access to the Dog Mountain Trail and a number of other popular recreation sites. The CRGNSA was created to protect scenic, natural, cultural, and recreational resources in the Gorge. There is growing interest to address increasing demand for recreation access. The challenge is to identify solutions that help protect resources in the Gorge, consistent with the guidelines established in the CRGNSA Management Plan.
