West Snoqualmie Valley Road & NE 124th Street isn’t just a rural intersection—it’s a critical connector for families, schools, farms, and commuters across the valley. While this intersection sits outside Duvall’s city limits, its daily impact on our community is undeniable. The good news: years of advocacy are paying off, and King County has listened.
I’m encouraged to see this corridor recognized across multiple priority lists in King County’s 2024 Comprehensive Plan, with substantial investments identified to improve safety, reduce congestion, and protect these vulnerable roadways:
OP-INT-122 — NE 124th ST & West Snoqualmie Valley Rd NE: Construct turn pockets + replace signal | $5.77M
CP-15-3 — W Snoqualmie Valley RD from NE 124th ST to NE Novelty Hill RD: Construct congestion relief measures | $10.73M
CP-15-8 — NE Novelty Hill Rd from 243rd AVE NE to W Snoqualmie Valley Rd NE: Major corridor upgrades | $92M
RC-39 — West Snoqualmie Valley Rd NE from NE 124th ST to Ames Lake-Carnation Rd: Retaining wall to prevent slides | $4.94M
These projects show a strong recognition by King County and our regional partners that these roads matter—not just for Duvall, but for the entire Snoqualmie Valley community.
As your next mayor, I’ll stay focused on advancing these priorities through collaboration, advocating for funding, and ensuring local voices are heard as solutions take shape. These aren’t just lines in a report—they’re lifelines for our community, and they deserve follow-through.
When cities, counties, and residents work together, we can make real progress on the roads that matter most.
