84th St NE and 163rd Ave NE Intersection Improvements

Description

To improve traffic flow and reduce the risk of collisions, Snohomish County Public Works is making intersection improvements at 84th St NE and 163rd Ave NE, a block west of State Route 92 near Granite Falls. The two-lane 84th St NE serves as a main connection for drivers traveling between Marysville and Granite Falls. Traffic on 163rd Ave NE is currently controlled by a two-way stop. Preliminary design plans include adding turn pockets and widening the shoulders or adding a roundabout.

Schedule

This project is expected to go to construction in the spring or summer of 2023.

Funding

Funding has been secured through a $1.8 million Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) grant. A 10 percent local match from the roads fund is also committed.

Environmental Review

An environmental review and public comment period are scheduled in 2020.
