Spring Boulevard Zone 4 will extend the roadway east from 130th Avenue Northeast to 132nd Avenue Northeast. Features of the project will include one vehicle lane, a buffered bike lane and a sidewalk in each direction, along with landscaping.
Sound Transit’s BelRed/130th light rail station will occupy the middle of Spring Boulevard, between the vehicle lanes. This project will add traffic signals at 130th and 132nd avenues to coordinate the movement of vehicles, pedestrians and bicyclists with light rail trains, and will include better lighting and other improvements.
Status
Plans call for construction to begin in early 2021.
