New traffic circle opens at Northeast 119th Street, Northeast 152nd Avenue in Hockinson area

Clark County Public Works has reopened the intersection at Northeast 119th Street and Northeast 152nd Avenue as construction of a single-lane roundabout there nears completion. The intersection is still an active construction zone while landscaping, permanent striping and illumination work continues.

Please slow down for construction workers as you negotiate the intersection.

The intersection has been the site of several severe crashes in the past 10 years, resulting in multiple serious injuries and two fatalities, and was identified by the county as a high priority for reconstruction to improve safety. A roundabout requires all vehicles to slow down and reduces the risk of head-on and T-bone (side-impact) collisions.

The $4.5 million project was supported by county road funds and partners including the Federal Highway Administration. More information about the project can be found at clark.wa.gov/public-works/ne-119th-st-and-ne-152nd-ave.
