Project Overview
The City of Sammamish is developing potential design alternatives to address non-motorized facilities and roadway improvements along 228th Avenue NE/Sahalee Way NE between NE 8th Street/NE Inglewood Hill Road and State Route (SR) 202.
The Sahalee Way Corridor Improvements Project will build the vision for the corridor to meet the needs of all users. During the project, we will collect community feedback on existing corridor conditions and proposed design alternatives to select a preferred design concept supported by the community and Sammamish City Council.
Purpose and Need
- Purpose: To establish the near- and long-term vision for the 228th Avenue NE/Sahalee Way NE corridor that is beneficial, actionable, and supported by the Council and public.
- Need: Improve 228th Avenue NE/Sahalee Way NE to safely accommodate pedestrians, bicyclists, and transit users in Sammamish through changes to the intersections and corridor between NE 8th Street/NE Inglewood Hill Road and the north city limit.
Project Benefits
- Increased safety for bikes, transit riders, and pedestrians
- Roadway upgrades, potentially including paving improvements
- Improved connections to regional trails/amenities, State Route 202, the Sammamish city center, and Redmond’s upcoming light rail transit service
- Promotes equitable transportation options for those without access to a personal vehicle
- Aligns with Sammamish's climate goals, which aim to close the non-motorized infrastructure gap between Sammamish and Redmond and reduce single-occupancy vehicle usage
