A roundabout will be built – soon – at the Highway 305/High School Road intersection. Asadvocates for nonmotorized transportation, bicycle, pedestrian and roller access, Safe Routes to Schools, and connectivity with the Sound to Olympics Trail, we urge Bainbridge Islanders to share their views and concerns with the Washington State Department of Transportation as the roundabout is in the early stages of design. The intersection serves far more than regional commuters driving to and from the ferry.
