Route description

SR 282 begins at an intersection with Basin Street, signed as SR 28, located within the city of Ephrata in Grant County.[3] The highway travels southeast over a BNSF rail line south of Amtrak Station before leaving Ephrata and passing Ephrata Municipal Airport.[4][5][6] SR 282 continues southeast and ends at SR 17 southeast of Ephrata as SR 17 turns southeast towards Moses Lake.[7]

Every year, the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) conducts a series of surveys on its highways in the state to measure traffic volume. This is expressed in terms of annual average daily traffic (AADT), which is a measure of traffic volume for any average day of the year. In 2011, WSDOT calculated that between 6,400 and 8,000 vehicles per day used the highway as a shortcut between Ephrata and Moses Lake.[8]

History

SR 282 was established during the 1964 highway renumbering as the successor to a branch route of SSH 11G connecting the main highway to Ephrata, established in 1951.[9][10] After being codified in 1970,[2][11] SR 282 was built and opened to traffic. The highway was repaved in fall 2009 as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.[12][13]

Major intersections

The entire highway is in Grant County.

gollark: Looping construct: jump backward one instruction (`L`)Branching construct: pick next instruction or previous instruction (`B`) - next if accumulator > 0, previous if accumulator <= 0.New branching construct: pick next instruction if user types `0` or previous if user types anything else (`N`)Making loop non-infinite: `E`, exits program if accumulator < 0.+1/-1 act on an accumulator initialized at zero (`+`/`-`)A program consists of a sequence of these instructions (first line) and arbitrary data encoded in base64 (second line) which is loaded into linear memory as bytes. These are executed left-to-right until the end is reached; when this occurs the direction of execution will be reversed.Infinite arbitrary data: command (`D`) to set accumulator to value of linear memory at position in accumulator.This language is called "HahaYourLawIsBad".
