One of the most heavily16traveled on-ramps from Mercer Island to the westbound Interstate 9017general purpose lanes is from Island Crest Way. The department must18continue to consult with the city of Mercer Island and the other19signatories to the 1976 memorandum of agreement to preserve access20provided to Mercer Island by the Island Crest Way on-ramp, and thus21grandfather-in the current use of the on-ramp for both high occupancy22vehicles as well as vehicles seeking to access the general purpose23lanes of Interstate 90. The department must consider all reasonable24access solutions, including allowing all vehicles to use the Island25Crest Way on-ramp to access the new high occupancy vehicle lane with26a reasonable and safe distance provided for single-occupancy vehicles27to merge into the general purpose lanes.

workers and have an annual payroll of fifteen million dollars. Before1the department's switch to steel guardrails, ninety percent of the2twenty-five hundred mile guardrail system was constructed of3preserved wood and one hundred ten thousand wood guardrail posts were4produced annually for state use. Moreover, the policy of using steel5posts requires the state to use imported steel. Given these findings,6where practicable, and until June 30, 2019, the department shall7include the design option to use wood guardrail posts, in addition to8steel posts, in new guardrail installations. The selection of posts9must be consistent with the agency design manual policy that existed10before December 2009.11
