Driving On WA SR-224 East/West In 1983 (Benton City, Richland)

Back in 1983, The Washington State Department of Transportation drove East/West on SR-224 and recorded video to document the highway. This was part of a project that photographed/videotaped the states highways every couple of years. This video now resides at The Washington State Archives who were kind enough to share it.
Eastbound: 00:06
Westbound: 17:53

Yep, I remember it well. Lived in Richland, but took that route many times to visit some friends in Benton City, as well as grandma, that lived in Kiona.

It’s so wild to see US-12 instead of I-82 or in one video I saw SR14 through the Tri-Cities instead of 82/395 from the early 80s. I wanna see a video of Yakima, where I was born (1982) and raised, from that era if there are any old videos out there somewhere.

It looks so much different today than it was back in 1983.

No traffic circles, how wonderful. If I had turned left in 9th Street I would have been home in three minutes.

No I-82?

[@Doobie1975]

Did you ever do Highway 225 in Benton City?

Unfortunately I do not have SR-225.
