MOUNTLAKE TERRACE, Wash. — The City of Mountlake Terrace is working to connect the Veteran’s Memorial Park to the Mountlake Terrace Transit Center.

The “Transit Connection Corridor Project” project will include the installation of a 4,300 square-foot Pedestrian Plaza on the southwest corner of 236th Street Southwest and Van Ry Boulevard next to the Mountlake Terrace light rail station.

 

It will also upgrade the trails for improved mobility and install lighting and signage for additional safety at the Veterans Memorial Park.
