Westbound drivers can access 175th Street via 68th Avenue NE or take the detour on 60th Avenue NE around the block and turn left on to eastbound SR 522 at 61st Avenue NE. (see the attached map)

The sidewalk between SR 522 and NE 175th Street on 61st Avenue NE will remain open during this work. This work will not affect the Burke-Gilman Trail.
