Route description

SR 403 ran Script error: No such module "convert". from Pillar Rock northwest to SR 4 in Rosburg. The route served as a connector to Pillar Rock.[1][2] The road started at Pillar Rock, a natural rock formation along the Columbia River. SR 403 went west and passed the communities of Brookefield and Altoona while paralleling the Columbia River's shoreline. The highway then went northwest and then curved westward before reverting to a more northern route to Rosburg. In Rosburg, SR 403 ended at an intersection with SR 4.[1][3]

History

When the Primary and Secondary Highways were formed in 1937, the former route of SR 403 became Secondary State Highway 12C (SSH 12C).[4] SSH 12C became SR 403 in 1964 during the 1964 highway renumbering, in which the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) replaced the previous system of Primary and Secondary Highways with a new system called State Routes, which is still in use today.[5][6] In 1991, the Washington State Legislature approved a law that removed the highway from the state route system.[7] The decommissioning took effect on April 1, 1992, with the state government continuing to maintain the Grays River bridge.[8]
