East Bird Street Improvements
Project Description
This project will complete a gap of standard width pavement and pedestrian facilities along E. Bird Street with other recent improvements including modifications along Spilman Ave to connect Entwistle Street, the King County Snoqualmie Valley Trail, Fred Hockert Park, and to facilitate access to the central business district and schools. The project scope coincides with improvements being made along Tolt Avenue in order to bring cohesion to the existing network of roadways and pedestrian facilities in Carnation. Stormwater run-off will be infiltrated in a drainage swale, providing water quality treatment, groundwater recharge, and eliminate ponding. The project will also provide one gravel parking lanes.
Project Updates
5/7/2024: To take advantage of the good weather rolling in, the Project Team is going to switch and start work on Wednesday May 8th by installing the stormwater infiltration on the north side of the street starting from Commercial. Any residents’ driveways that will be blocked, have been notified.  Thank you and pardon our dust!
5/3/2024: The first week was a success! The Project Team was able to clear and grade the right of way. Rain is anticipated over the weekend and into Monday. As of today (Friday May 3rd), the Project Team will be off site Monday and Tuesday (May 6th and 7th). The Team will start up on Wednesday (May 8th) working on grading and rocking the south side of the street working from Commerical to Spillman. The project team is hoping this will create temporary parking for the residents sooner in the project than anticipated! Thanks for the patience and pardon our dust!
