Planning Commission asks for clearer lane, surface and rail data in Transportation chapter

Jul 13, 2026

Cheney commissioners asked staff to split road‑length tables to clarify lane counts and surface types, seek Spokane Transit Authority transit data, and add information on Washington Eastern Railroad train frequency and crossing hold times; they continued the Transportation hearing to next month.

Chairman Ron Valencia opened the continued Transportation Element hearing. Planning staff said they will split the road‑length table so lane counts and surface types are shown separately and will confirm lane counts with the street department. Commissioners also agreed that listed access roads should remain unchanged because no major changes have occurred in the past decade.
