Status: Complete September 2019
Minor modifications were made to the intersection of 15th Avenue NW and NW Richmond Beach Road to better accommodate driveway turns. Please see the diagram linked here for the concept plan and context.
For more information on the City's Complete Streets ordinance and Bicycle Network, please visit our Bicycle Plan webpage.
Before – Richmond Beach Road between 3rd Avenue NW and 8th Avenue NW

We are monitoring the corridor and working on the before and after study. The report will track:
- Collisions
- Traffic Speeds
- Traffic Volumes
- Traffic Diversion (cut through traffic on nearby residential streets)
- Travel Times
- Emergency Response Times
- Bus Travel Times
Overview and History
In 2016 City Council approved the rechannelization as part of the 2017-2022 CIP. The project changed the striping on Richmond Beach Road between 24th Avenue NW and Dayton Avenue N. The road originally had two lanes in each direction. It now has one lane in each direction, a center turn lane, and bike lanes.
The project was done to address safety issues. Richmond Beach Road has a history of collisions, including two high collision locations from the City’s 2016 Annual Traffic Report:
- 3rd Avenue NW and NW Richmond Beach Road intersection
- NW Richmond Beach Road between 3rd Avenue NW and 8th Avenue NW
High collision locations have higher rates of injury collisions than other roads or intersections in Shoreline.
There was an open house at the beginning of design to share information, receive feedback on different options, and address peoples’ questions and concerns about the project. You can view the meeting materials below:
- Video of June 2017 staff presentation
- June Display boards
- West Roll Plot - 10% Design (24th Avenue NW to 15th Avenue NW)
- Central Roll Plot - 10% Design (15th Avenue NW to 8th Avenue NW)
- East Roll Plot - 10% Design (8th Avenue NW to Dayton Avenue N)
- Video of June Group Question and Answer session
There was an open house during the late stages of design to give people a chance to comment before the project was finalized. You can view the meeting materials below:
