Snohomish County Public Works launches Interurban Trail improvements study
EVERETT — Snohomish County Public Works launched a study Tuesday to explore walking, bicycling, rolling and other active transportation improvements along the Interurban Trail near Lynnwood.
The study will focus on a section of the trail near Maple Road where I-5 interferes with people’s ability to walk, bike or use wheelchairs, a press release said. The study is funded by a $250,000 grant from the Sandy Williams Connecting Communities Program, supported by the Washington Climate Commitments Act.
The study will evaluate a potential pedestrian and bicycle overpass of I-5, new walking and biking facilities along Maple and Butternut Road and a potential trail connection through the Snohomish Public Utility District corridor to Lynnwood Park, Lynnwood High School and potentially North Road, among other considerations.
A July online open house is in the works and an in-person community event is planned for September. Residents will have the opportunity to learn about the project and provide feedback.
