180th St SE - Phase I

Update September 2019

An informational open house for the 180th St SE - Phase I project is tentatively scheduled to be held during March 2020. Construction on the project will begin during spring 2020.

 

Description

Snohomish County's six-year Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) identifies projects to improve conditions for pedestrians and motorists along the 180th St. SE corridor. One of these is a project along 180th St. SE beginning at the Bothell-Everett Highway (SR 527) intersection.


The county is proposing to add two lanes to bring 180th St. SE up to five-lanes between SR 527 and 23rd Ave SE (Phase I), along with bike lanes and sidewalks on both sides of the road.


The project was recently awarded $4 million from the Washington State Transportation Improvement Board for construction funding. 

Schedule

Phase I is at 90 percent design and construction is tentatively scheduled to begin in spring 2020. An informational open house is being planned for March 2020 prior to construction.
