Subject: [cs-ugrads] Snohomish Lane opening day-
To: <cs-staff@cs.washington.edu>, <researchers@cs.washington.edu>, <cs-ugrads@cs.washington.edu>, <vgrads@cs.washington.edu>
Hey CSE! Snohomish Lane is the name of the pedestrian path across from Stevens Way that runs east/west to the Burke Gilman and the IMA. As a part of the construction of the Gates Center, the pathway was completely revised, including hardscape (rocks and concrete) and landscape (trees and shrubs). While we had a temporary pathway much of last year, the path was closed early summer for the construction of the permanent stairs, ramps and planters. The current plan is for the path to open to pedestrian traffic again Oct 15th. The team will still be planting, but the stairs will be ready to go.
The accessibility ramps will be ready to go shortly after, Nov 1.
The schedule may either improve or slip a few days on either end. We’re hoping for improvement!
Happy to answer any questions-
