You thought drivers got upset when the state added traffic lights on the ramps between I-90 and I-5 in Seattle? Just wait until drivers find active traffic lights on State Route 522 (SR 522) Monday during their trips between Woodinville and Bothell.

Drivers have been asking me for weeks about the new signals being added to SR 522 at the I-405 interchange. They were curious why the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) would add signals to what was a free-flowing road. They were not happy about the change, but it’s coming Monday.

That’s when WSDOT will turn on two new traffic signals and open a new ramp from northbound I-405 to SR 522. This is all part of the expansion of the express toll lane system and increasing direct bus service to Bothell.
