Get 'Roundabout Ready' at Shoreline event July 22, 2025

Shoreline, WALocal News

The City of Shoreline will host a "Roundabout Ready" event on July 22, 2025, from 7 to 8:30 PM, focused on educating drivers about navigating new roundabouts. Participants will engage with a roundabout simulator and learn about the 145th Street Interchange Project's safety enhancements. City officials and project partners will discuss the expected benefits as construction wraps up in early 2026. Roundabouts are known to improve traffic flow and reduce serious accidents, although they can pose challenges for drivers unaccustomed to them. With a substantial investment in infrastructure and public education, Shoreline aims to ensure a smooth transition to this new traffic system.

The event highlights the city's proactive approach to enhancing traffic safety and reducing congestion. For those unable to attend, the roundabout simulator will also be available at various summer events, including the Shoreline Farmers Market and Celebrate Shoreline. This initiative reflects Shoreline's broader goal of fostering safer streets and informed drivers.
