Washington State Route 129
Encyclopedia
State Route 129 Spur (SR 129 Spur) runs 0.07 mile (0.1126538 km) from SR 129, north to US 12, within the City of Clarkston
. The route goes from SR 129, and merges onto westbound US 12. It serves mostly as a cut through to and from the two routes and WSDOT has found that 2,300 motorists use the road daily near the SR 129 intersection.
SR 129 began as part of Primary State Highway 3's Clarkston branch (PSH 3 DC) in 1937. PSH 3 DC traveled from OR 3 north to Clarkston
and then west to Pomeroy
, ending at PSH 3 where it was co-signed with U.S. Route 295
(US 295). US 295 was established in 1926, and later decommissioned
in 1967. In 1964, PSH 3 DC was renamed SR 129 and became a state highway during a statewide highway renumbering. The Washington State Department of Transportation
(WSDOT) replaced the previous system of primary and secondary highways with a new system called State Routes
, which is still in use today.
