Damage to roundabout on 185th to be repaired spring of 2026

Shoreline, WALocal News

A CDL truck driver likely caused damage to the new roundabout on NE 185th by the Transit Station, prompting a delayed repair schedule. Shoreline Public Works anticipates that full repairs will not occur until spring 2026 due to the prioritization of critical maintenance tasks. The city has already established contract work schedules for the summer, which limits immediate action on the roundabout. While the damage is primarily cosmetic, it still requires attention as part of the city’s infrastructure upkeep. In the interim, city workers will clean up debris and repair a bent sign to enhance safety and aesthetics.

This incident highlights the ongoing challenges of maintaining local infrastructure amidst competing priorities. Residents can rest assured that the city is focused on urgent maintenance needs while planning for future repairs. Shoreline’s public works efforts reflect a commitment to maintaining safe and functional roadways.
