Plan ahead for Sunnyside Blvd traffic delays 916

Starting September 16, drivers in the Sunnyside area will face traffic delays due to the testing of a new traffic signal at the intersection of Sunnyside Boulevard and 53rd Avenue NE. Single-lane closures will be enforced throughout the day, making it essential for motorists to seek alternate routes. The city is implementing these changes to address the rising traffic volumes in southeast Marysville. In addition to the new signal, a two-way left-turn lane will enhance safety, while the removal of some on-street parking aims to streamline traffic flow. These traffic safety improvements reflect a proactive approach to managing local road conditions.

The city has noted that these measures will not only improve safety but also facilitate better traffic management. Residents are urged to adjust their travel plans to avoid delays. Planning ahead will help minimize inconvenience during this transition.
