→State Route 107 (SR 107) is a highway that connects U.S. Route 12 in Montesano to U.S. Route 101 (US 101) south of Cosmopolis. It is used to bypass Aberdeen by those traveling to southwestern Washington and Oregon.
[edit] Route description
SR 107 begins at an intersection with US 101 through lightly wooded land, headed northeasterly, passing Preachers and Peels Slough on the north side of the highway. The highway parallels, then crosses over the Chehalis River. Continuing northerly, the highway enters the city limits of Montesano, intersecting and terminating at US 12. Main Street, as the roadway is named in Montesano, continues north into town.[2]
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 average annual daily traffic (AADT), which is a measure of traffic volume for any average day of the year. In 2009, WSDOT calculated that as few as 2,000 cars traveled on the highway at its western terminus, and as many as 6,200 cars used the highway at the eastern terminus.[3]
[edit] Major intersections
The entire route is located in Grays Harbor County.
