Route description
Bangor
SR 308 begins as Luoto Road at a
Naval Undersea Museum and serves as the main thoroughfare through the community before it ends at the main entrance to the Naval Undersea Warfare Center, continuing east as Strom Avenue into the base.[4]
Every year, the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) conducts a series of surveys on its highways in the state to measure traffic volume. This is expressed in terms of annual average daily traffic (AADT), which is a measure of traffic volume for any average day of the year. In 2011, WSDOT calculated that the busiest section of the highway was between SR 3 and Liberty Bay, serving 11,000 vehicles, while the least busy section was the bridge over Liberty Bay, serving 6,300 vehicles.[5]
History
The current route of SR 308 was first added to the state highway system in 1929 as the
Secondary State Highway 21B (SSH 21B) before crossing Liberty Bay.[8][9] The Keyport branch was incorporated into SR 303, which replaced SSH 21B,[10][11] with a short spur route serving Keyport.[12] SR 308 was established in 1971 to replace the Keyport spur of SR 303 and extended over SR 303 in 1991 to SR 3 after SR 303 was moved south to end in Silverdale.[2][13][14]
