Expect Downtown Everett Traffic Congestion With Broadway Repaving Project

Downtown Everett will face traffic congestion starting August 18 due to the repaving of Broadway from California Street to 18th Street. Full closures will occur nightly from 7 p. m. to 7 a. m.

, redirecting traffic primarily to Colby Avenue, Hewitt Avenue, 23rd Street, and Walnut Street. The project will be executed in three phases, each closing different segments of Broadway, with timelines yet to be determined. The construction is weather-dependent, meaning dates may change, and the grinding and paving work is expected to be loud and disruptive. Bus stops within the closure zone will be out of service during construction hours, with notices provided by Transit. Despite the disruptions, property access and emergency vehicle access on Broadway will be maintained.

Traffic detours will be implemented during work hours, with maps available for residents. This project aims to improve roadway conditions and traffic flow in the area.
