U.S. 395


U.S. 395 varies as either a freeway or expressway for the entire 73.21 mile drive between I-182 at Pasco and I-90 at Ritzville. Pictured here is the roadway north of the diamond interchange with SR 26 in Adams County built in 1995. - 08/03/2011
Four laning of U.S. 395 was completed between the Tri-Cities and Ritzville on November 21, 1995 when 15 miles of a new northbound roadway by Lind opened to traffic. An $83 million project started in 1991, expansion of U.S. 395 widened 50 miles of roadway from Mesa to Interstate 90. The stretch tied into a previously widened U.S. 395 between Pasco and Mesa. Final work involved rebuilding the interchange at I-90, which occurred by 1996.1

The Hatton Coulee Rest Area originally served both U.S. 395 and SR 26 directly at their at-grade intersection. When the diamond interchange between the two highways opened in 1995, rest area access was relocated solely to SR 26.
