NE 178th to be closed for a week for road and culvert project

NE 178th between Brookside Blvd and 37th Ave NE in Lake Forest Park will be closed due to road and culvert work for approximately one week. This will affect school transportation and local traffic.

The project, in the vicinity of Brookside Elementary School, features much needed non-motorized safety improvements including curb, gutter and sidewalk; bicycle lane; pedestrian-activated crosswalk signals; low-impact development construction features including permeable cement concrete sidewalks; and a fish-friendly replacement of the McAleer Creek culvert under NE 178th Street.

The project is moving forward with completion targeted for December.
