The Moses Lake City Council approved the installation of a new traffic signal at the intersection of 4th Avenue and Main Street during its regular meeting on September 4, 2026. The decision follows a traffic study conducted by the city's Public Works Department that identified the intersection as having high congestion and a history of minor collisions. The council's approval authorizes the department to move forward with the project, which is expected to begin construction in early 2027. The project will involve the installation of a full traffic signal system, including pedestrian crosswalks and new signage. The council's action was unanimous, with Councilmember Jane Smith stating, 'This intersection has been a concern for years, and this signal will help prevent accidents and improve traffic flow for residents and visitors.'
