Contact phone 425-388-3815 3. Contact email [email protected] Project Description 1. Project Scope This grant will provide the funding required to complete 100% design and obtain development permits for 12 miles of the Centennial Trail, in Snohomish County. The new pedestrian/bicycle trail will complete the connection between the existing southern terminus of the Centennial Trail in the City of Snohomish and the King County line, near the north boundary of the City of Woodinville, where it will connect with King County’s extensive trail system. When built, the project will provide a 12-foot wide asphalt trail with a 2-foot wide gravel shoulder on either side. The trail alignment will parallel an existing rail alignment and be physically separated with a ditch, grade separation, or fencing. Due to the varying topography along the corridor, and for accommodation of adjacent land uses and railroad operations, the trail will cross the railroad at three strategic locations to best accommodate the new pedestrian/bicycle path. Each of these at-grade crossings will provide a curved entrance to slow bicyclists as they cross perpendicular to the tracks, and have advance safety signage prior to and at the crossing location to direct users to stop and watch for rail traffic. Three public parking areas will be located along the trail for trailhead access which will also provide public parking areas will be located along the trail for trailhead access which will also provide 2 of 6 direct connections to the Bob Heriman Wildlife Park at Thomas' Eddy and a large County park currently in design in Maltby. The existing railroad will be preserved for continued use as a route for freight hauling and potential future use with an excursion or commuter train. The design for the 12-mile long project will be strategically divided into three sections, each with independent utility and logical termini to allow for construction in independent, logical phases as construction funding becomes available. 2. Project Justification, Need, or Purpose Background Information: Snohomish County was awarded a CMAQ grant in 2014 for this project (formerly referred to as Eastside Rail/Trail). There were Right-of-Way complications which prevented Snohomish County from purchasing the Eastside Rail property and the project was put on hold. The CMAQ grant funds were returned in 2015. In 2016, Snohomish County was able to purchase the $3.5M right-of-way corridor from the Port of Seattle and has been moving forward with the design of this important project, investing over $1.8M to date. The Centennial Trail is a major regional asset, currently supporting approximately 500,000 users per year and over 850,000 once King County completes their connection. The trail currently stretches between the Skagit/Snohomish County line to the City of Snohomish and provides recreation opportunities as well as a significant non-motorized commute option. The current Centennial Trail connects the cities of Arlington, Marysville, Lake Stevens, and Snohomish and is planned to connect to the Whitehorse Trail, providing an additional 27 mile corridor accessing the Oso community and the town of Darrington. The new ped/bike path will extend the Centennial trail to serve the large population centers of south Snohomish County and King County and complete a continuous regional trail from Skagit County through King County and eventually to Pierce County. Use of this trail will grow significantly when the connection is completed to the King County trail system in Woodinville. Future planned connections include extensions to the cities of Stanwood and Monroe. The new ped/bike path will fill a missing transportation link between the current end of the Centennial Trail and the larger regional trail system which extends into King County, providing an important non-motorized transportation corridor for a commute alternative. The project will enhance the safety and environment for non-motorized travel between the cities of Snohomish and Woodinville, and the areas of Cathcart and Maltby in-between. Cyclists will have an alternative to busy County roads and State highways. The bike/ped path will also create a destination for recreational bicycle riders as it will provide a continuous 42-mile route through scenic areas of northern Puget Sound. Bicycling in the rural Snohomish and Maltby areas is very popular, especially on weekends, but most riders have to resort to roadways without a formal shoulder or much separation from traffic. This project will provide a safe facility for bicyclists to commute and for recreational opportunities, promote efficient travel, and improve the environment by advancing a "healthier" transportation system.

  • Eastside Rail Corridor Regional Trail Draft Master Plan and Environmental Impact Statement
    EASTSIDE RAIL CORRIDOR REGIONAL TRAIL DRAFT MASTER PLAN AND ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT KING COUNTY PARKS AND RECREATION DIVISION FEBRUARY 2016 Dear Friends: In our rapidly developing region, we are fortunate to be able to preserve the Eastside Rail Corridor (ERC) in public ownership from Renton to Snohomish. The regional vision for the ERC is to develop a multi-use corridor that enhances mobility and connectivity, supports utility infrastructure needs, and provides recreational opportunities. Within this broader vision, the ERC offers a unique opportunity to create a nonmotorized (regional trail) connection between many vibrant, growing, and dynamic areas, providing a safe and enjoyable recreational experience for people of all ages and abilities and promoting healthy, livable communities. One day, it’s possible this corridor may connect from Vancouver WA to Vancouver BC. The intent is to develop a regional trail in the 15.6 miles of ERC under its ownership and the 1.1 miles of ERC owned by Sound Transit in which the County holds a trail easement that does not preclude future transit or utility use of the ERC, while meeting the following objectives: Connect Eastside communities by linking to: o Existing and planned regional and local trails o Transit centers, park and rides, and East Link light rail stations o Residential, commercial, and business centers Provide nonmotorized active transportation options and expand recreational opportunities to: o Benefit public health o Improve air quality and reduce greenhouse gas emissions o Expand access for underserved areas of King County Incorporate Eastside heritage and culture Support opportunities for economic development This Master Plan and Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is an important first step towards planning, environmental review, design, and construction of a regional trail in the corridor.
