Existing Conditions

This section of SR 99 has had an unusally high number of severe collisions, including 7 fatalities over the last 10 years (3 just in June 2021). Excessive speed for conditions and lack of access management and turn lanes have been contributing factors to this collision history. In addition, congestion in Fife and Puyallup have increased volumes and the intersection of S 373rd Street at SR 99 is forecast to have a failing level of service. In addition, a planned warehouse in Milton will exacerbate this condition. The City is working with this developer to provide mitigation funds for this project.

Description of Improvements

The City will establish median control throughout the length of the project to reduce the severity of collisions from driveways and side streets, and construct a roundabout at the intersection of S 373rd Street to address the forecast level of service failure, to accommodate additional development from Milton, and assist in managing speeds on SR 99.
