Sound Transit construction alert for campus commuters

Starting as early as Thursday, Sound Transit will begin to clear trees and vegetation near Interstate 5 in order to establish construction work areas where the light rail route will travel.

Work will begin near the intersection of NE 145th Street and I-5, near Jackson Park Golf Course.

The Lynnwood Link route emphasized reducing the private property acquisition and costs required for the project by prioritizing use of existing transportation right of way along I-5 where possible.

A centerpiece of the project’s design is replacing the existing trees with nearly four times as many trees when the project is complete.

Traffic impacts

  • There will be a southbound lane closure on 5th Ave NE with flaggers alternating traffic in both northbound and southbound directions.
  • The right shoulder will be closed on the I-5 northbound off-ramp to NE 145th St (see map).

This may happen as soon as Thursday, May 2nd, and the traffic revision will remain for approximately two weeks.

Work hours are 10am to 2pm for the first day and will change to 9am to 3pm when construction progresses south away from the NE 145th St off-ramp. 

The work zone is located between NE 130th St to NE 145th St (see map).
Work will start at NE 145th St and move towards NE 130th St.
Safety: Sound Transit asks that drivers focus on the road and keep traffic moving. Flaggers will be onsite to direct traffic.

Remember to wear your Shoreline attire this #PhinNation Wednesday & Pack the Stands Night!

Every Wednesday, show your #PhinNation pride by wearing Shoreline attire. It’s a fun way to connect with colleagues and students each week. Don’t forget to take advantage of your employee discount at the Bookstore. Looking forward to seeing everyone decked out in Shoreline wear on Wednesdays.

A reminder that this Wednesday, January 9, is Pack the Stands Night for Shoreline Athletics, so there’s extra incentive to get decked out in #PhinNation gear.

Our basketball teams will take on Edmonds at home in the Gym (3000 bldg), and the first 100 fans through the doors will receive a free t-shirt. There will also be giveaways during the games. Women tip off at 5:30pm, men at 7:30pm.

Additionally, SCC Athletics and SLC Stomping Out Hunger are running a food drive at Pack the Stands Night. Bring non-perishable food items or toiletry items for half off admission. Shoreline students, staff, and faculty get in free for all home games.
