Existing Conditions
The Lund Ave. corridor was identified as the highest priority transportation need in South Kitsap (SK-TIS, 2021). Lund Ave. is a major east-west arterial connecting SE Kitsap County to the Bethel Rd. commercial area, downtown Port Orchards, and SR 16. The Lund neighborhood includes the 209- acre South Kitsap Regional Park, schools, and is adjacent to regional commercial uses and services (Safeway, Walmart, Walgreens, restaurants, person services). The Lund Corridor will operate at LOS E by 2036 with Harris, Hoover, and Chase intersections currently operating at LOS F, F, and E respectively. Chase ranks 7th on the Countys Intersection Capacity List (2023). The corridor is a rural design with two travel lanes and paved shoulders. The Chase intersection is the main entrance to the 209-acre South Kitsap Regional Park, major access point to the residential areas to the south, transit route, and the primary mid-corridor pedestrian crossing for Lund Avenue.
