If you’re catching the Mukilteo ferry Wednesday morning, you’ll have to make a slight detour at the Mukilteo Speedway.

The northbound SR 99 on-ramp to SR 525 (Mukilteo Speedway) is shutting down for guardrail repairs. Work starts at 8 a.m. and wraps up by 2 p.m.

During that time, drivers can take Lincoln Way to SR 525.

Real-time traffic information is available on the WSDOT mobile app and the real-time travel map.
