Stimulus funds for Research District project
The state of Washington is providing $1.68 million in stimulus funds for the reconstruction of First Street in Richland, which serves as the primary entrance point to the Tri-Cities Research District. The construction project will go out for bid in July and will include landscaping, sidewalks and boulevard street lanes. A street name change is also being considered. The project is the result of a partnership between the Research District, the Port of Benton, Washington State University Tri-Cities, and the City of Richland.
