I’m surprised the critical issue of infrastructure was not addressed. . The increasing problems of traffic along the 1-5 corridor is a huge part of my increasing dissatisfaction with quality of life issues for this area along with homeless camps everywhere & the uptick in crime. Throughout the Lacey/ Olympia areas are major chokeholds of traffic that just gets worse year after year. We’ve been here for 27 years. Urban growth areas like Lacey has gone downhill since completion of the Marvin/ Martin overpass which was supposed to decrease congestion. It’s only done the opposite. Lacey now has consistent backups on Martin/ Marvin, Pacific/ 512 , Nisqually exit & Marvin/Steilacoom with I-5 overflows that has impeded traffic for hours especially during the weekends. It’s become horrible . Now the Lacey Board of Commissioners are considering the proposal to add 2 new residential properties by DH Horton for over 400 new apartments & homes! The only road consideration I’ve read about are roundabouts. The quality of life issues that drew folks to the area are diminishing quickly.
