Everett eyeing $1.35M to expand bike paths east of Broadway
Everett thinks it has the missing link for people who want to bike, roll or stroll to and from downtown.
The city is considering a $1.35 million project to design and build bike-only paths, bike signal crossings, and sidewalks on Fulton Street between California Street and Pacific Avenue. The stretch, under half of a mile, would connect Everett’s existing and planned bike lanes on California Street to Everett Station and the U.S. 2 trestle pedestrian path.
“This project fits in well with other nearby non-motorized amenities,” said city engineer Tom Hood last week during a presentation to the Everett City Council.
Initially city staff envisioned the Fulton Street project as being some signs and pavement markings. But Everett got grants that let them “significantly” expand its scope, Hood said.
