Synopsis as Enacted

Brief Description: Extending state route number 166.

Sponsors: Senate Committee on Transportation (originally sponsored by Senators Kilmer and Sheldon).

Senate Committee on Transportation

House Committee on Transportation

Background: Legislation passed in 2009 transferred the responsibility for reviewing route jurisdiction transfers from the Transportation Improvement Board to the Washington State Transportation Commission (Commission). Recommendations for transfers must be approved by the Legislature and can be generated directly through legislation, rather than by recommendation from the Commission. Criteria for making additions and deletions to the highway system are listed in statute and include consideration of the connections a route provides and the populations it serves.

State Route (SR) 166 is currently established as running from SR 16 northeasterly to the eastern city limits of Port Orchard.

Summary: SR 166 is extended to run from SR 16 to the eastern Port Orchard city limits as they exist on the effective date of this act.
