The intersection of Birch Bay-Lynden Road and Blaine Road (SR-542) experiences significant congestion during peak hours, especially in the summer. Whatcom County Public plans to make improvements to the intersection that will enhance multi-modal safety and improve traffic flow through the intersection. The project will include the following components:
The improvements will provide several benefits to the general public:

Design Phase (2021-2023)
Construction Phase (2024-2025)

Whatcom County Public Works will have a virtual public meeting to explain this project and gather public feedback. Information about the public meeting will be posted here once it is available.
