About 145th Street

The 145th Street corridor is a major east-west route that connects south Shoreline and north Seattle neighborhoods to businesses, parks, and services. 

The work along 145th Street will improve intersection safety, reduce traffic, and add better pedestrian and bicycle access. 

These improvements come as the City prepares to welcome the Sound Transit Link light rail and the new Shoreline South/148th Street station to the neighborhood in 2024.

145th Street improvements will be addressed through two projects:
  • 145th Street Corridor Project
    • Improves traffic lights at intersections.  
    • Adds left turn lanes. 
    • Adjusts traffic light timing. 
    • Adds pedestrian signs. 
    • Improves sidewalks and crosswalks. 
    • Adds Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessible curb ramps. 
  • 145th Street and I-5 Interchange Project 
    • Replaces the traffic light intersections on both the east and west sides of I-5 with roundabouts. 
    • Eliminates left turn lanes and adds a bike lane and sidewalk along the north side of the bridge over I-5.  
Together, these projects will improve safety, efficiency, and connectivity along 145th Street.
