Granite Falls Bridge 102 Replacement Community Open House Scheduled for April 2025

Snohomish, WALocal News

The Granite Falls Bridge 102 replacement project is poised to significantly enhance transportation safety and accessibility for the community. Built in 1934, the current bridge is only 20 feet wide, making it challenging for two large vehicles to pass each other safely. Residents are encouraged to attend a community open house on April 10, 2025, to discuss the proposed design and improvements. The new structure will not only widen lanes for motorists and cyclists but also add sidewalks for pedestrians, creating a safer environment for all users. Dedicated viewing areas of the Stillaguamish River will enrich the scenic experience for travelers on Mountain Loop Highway.

Construction is slated to begin in 2028, with the existing bridge remaining operational throughout the process. Snohomish County Public Works, responsible for the project, emphasizes its mission to enhance safety while maintaining fiscal responsibility and environmental preservation. For ongoing updates, residents can visit the project webpage.
