According to channel 17, the Centennial Corridor will open the first week of February, assuming the remaining electrical work can be completed by then. This will connect the Westside Parkway to the 99, and allow the 58 to continue onto the Westside Parkway. I hope it will take some of the traffic off Rosedale Highway.

Thanks for posting! I've been looking forward to this corridor opening.

Here's a link to the news article:

"After 15 years and expenditures of $1.5 billion, the Centennial Corridor is finally about to open โ€” most likely the first week of February, if contractors can finish the last remaining electrical work."

Edit: I just found an article from a few days ago saying they expect the ribbon cutting to be Feb. 2nd
