New developments in Bothell are required to construct sidewalks along the project’s street frontage, but it hasn't always been that way. To address pedestrian safety where sidewalks and crosswalks don't exist, the City established the Sidewalk & Crosswalk Program. The work includes:
- Analyzing sidewalk and curb ramp conditions
- Coordinating sidewalk construction with other roadway work
- Ensuring compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
- Prioritizing sidewalk and crosswalk projects
- Seeking grant funding
Crosswalk Flashing Lights Program
The Safe Streets & Sidewalks Levy provides funds for pedestrian-activated flashing crosswalk lights at a number of unsignalized intersections and mid-block crosswalks.
Pedestrian Flags Crosswalk Program
The Safe Streets & Sidewalks Levy provides funds for a pedestrian safety flag program for school crosswalks throughout Bothell.
Prioritizing Projects
The current priority list includes approximately 2,180 projects. The list is reviewed annually and adjusted as conditions change.
ADA Grievances
The City of Bothell is committed to providing equal access for people with disabilities in its programs, services, and activities.
The City has an annual budget for sidewalk and crosswalk construction. Funding for sidewalks and crosswalks comes from taxes, grants, and the nine-year Safe Streets & Sidewalks levy. A portion of those funds is specifically designated for the Safe School Walk Routes program.
