I-5 - NE 175th St. to NE 205th St. - NB Auxiliary Lanes - Complete June 2006

Overview
Constructed an additional lane on I-5 between the northbound NE 175th Street on-ramp and NE 205th Street exit in Shoreline. Widened the northbound NE 175th Street on-ramp to provide another metered lane; added a Washington State Patrol enforcement area, built sound walls and created a stormwater collection and filtering system.

How You Benefit

The additional lane improves safety by providing motorists with more time and extra room to accelerate or decelerate and merge when getting on and off the freeway.
Car GlyphRelieves Congestion
The added ramp lane will help reduce congestion on NE 175th Street by providing more space for turning traffic during metering operations.
Leaf Glyph Protects Environment
New sound walls will reduce noise levels in nearby communities.  Improved stormwater collection will enhance water quality.
