Beginning on Monday, August 1, a portion of 64th Ave W, between Highway 99 and 200th St SW will be permanently closed to public traffic in order to make way for an expansion of the Harris Ford Dealership and road improvements on 200th St SW.
In November of 2021, Harris Ford filed a petition with the City of Lynnwood requesting a vacation of 64th Ave W right-of-way. After holding several public briefings and a public hearing, the City Council approved this right-of-way vacation in May of 2022.
As a condition for vacating the street, Harris Ford will construct a dedicated right-hand turn lane from 200th St SW to southbound Highway 99. The dedicated lane and associated intersection improvements will improve traffic flow and pedestrian safety.
Harris Ford has completed land use and construction permit reviews and the City of Lynnwood has issued construction permits. Please look for signage directing traffic around the closure and throughout construction.
The process for the vacation of a street or alley is included in the City's Municipal Code. For more information on that process, visit Ch 12.16.
