Larch Way/Logan Road and Locust Way Intersection Improvement Project

August 2023 Update

Snohomish County PUD will be removing selected trees in preparation for relocating overhead utility lines. Occasional single-lane closures are expected as crews remove trees and relocate overhead utility lines in preparation for the construction of the roundabout in the summer of 2024. 


Description

Snohomish County Public Works is proposing to construct a single lane roundabout at the Larch Way/Logan Road and Locust Way intersection. In addition to the roundabout, roadway improvements consisting of curbs, gutters, and a shared-use path will be constructed. These improvements are expected to improve traffic flow and expand mobility for bicyclists and pedestrians. This project is currently in the design and right-of-way phase with construction estimated to begin in 2024.
