ELLENSBURG, Wash. —

The Transportation Department says a paving project that started Monday on Interstate 90 at Ellensburg is the first in the state funded by federal stimulus money.

The four-mile $1.7 million project is funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, creating 25 jobs.

The department says it has started asking contractors to bid on other stimulus funding projects. They include a $9 million project to repair and smooth six miles of southbound I-5 near Stanwood, which is expected to employ 60 workers. Also, a $3.8 million project to repave 12 miles of Highway 97 over Satus Pass, which is expected to employ 35 workers.
