Project Overview
The Myra Road South Extension Project extended Myra Road from SR-125 to Taumarson Road, creating a new connection between south Walla Walla and US-12 and opening access to more than 50 acres of commercially and residentially zoned land. Delivered through a partnership among local jurisdictions, private developers, and WSDOT, the project provided critical infrastructure to support future growth, including housing, employment, commercial development, and improved emergency response access. The project also enabled the development of a WinCo Foods grocery store at the site.
