Spokane Valley has secured a major win for local drivers and commuters: a $20 million federal grant to fund improvements to the Sullivan and Trent interchange project, according to a report from KREM published on July 2, 2026.

The funding, awarded through a federal grant program, will go directly toward upgrading one of the area’s key transportation corridors. The Sullivan and Trent interchange is a critical junction for residents and businesses in Spokane Valley, and the investment is expected to bring meaningful, long-lasting improvements to traffic flow and safety in the region.

Infrastructure wins of this scale are a big deal for a growing community like Spokane Valley, where demand on roads and interchanges continues to increase. Federal grants of this size help the city tackle major projects that might otherwise take years longer to fund through local budgets alone.

Stay tuned for more details as the project moves forward — this is the kind of improvement that Spokane Valley residents will be benefiting from for decades to come.
