The City of Edmonds is hosting an open house for the Highway 99 Revitalization/Gateway project from 6-8 p.m. Wednesday, March 7, at Swedish Hospital, 21601 76th Ave. W., Auditorium C, 4th floor).
The project’s goal is to extend the successful transformation of Highway 99 in Shoreline through Edmonds and complete a safer corridor for all modes of transportation. Proposed transportation improvements along the corridor — from 244th Street Southwest to 212th Street Southwest — will be discussed, such as wider sidewalks, new street lighting, raised center medians for access management, attractive and safer crosswalks, better stormwater management, targeted utility replacements, potential undergrounding of overhead utilities, landscaping, and softscape treatments.
The Highway 99 Revitalization plan is funded by a grant from the state’s Connecting Washington transportation program. The project schedule, funding strategies and options for how project improvements may be phased over time will be discussed.
Additional information regarding the project can be found at www.edmondshwy99.org or by contacting Bertrand Hauss, transportation engineer, at 425-771-0220 or bertrand.hauss@edmondswa.gov.
