In this episode, Paul Jewell and Axel Swanson dig into the whirlwind start of week three, from storm impacts across the state to the massive responsibilities counties shoulder in maintaining 60% of Washington’s road system. They break down budget priorities, emerging funding fixes, and why collaboration between jurisdictions matters more than ever. Axel also sheds light on culvert replacements, infrastructure funding sweeps, and a decades‑old gas tax error now demanding attention. It’s a fast‑moving, high‑stakes look at the systems that keep Washington moving.
