SR 9 Martin Rd. To Thunder Creek Realignment and Widening - Complete November 2009

Overview
We straightened the road and widened the lanes and shoulders to improve safety north of Sedro-Woolley between Martin Road and Thunder Creek. We also improved the Martin Road intersection at State Route 9. Burlington Northern Railroad built a new railroad crossing with a warning signal as part of the project.

How You Benefit

Railroad crossing - BNSF built a new railroad crossing to help improve safety.
