I continue to get nominations for the worst intersection in Snohomish County. Mary, from Everett, said she most dreads the intersection of 41st Street and Rucker Avenue, where drivers seem to routinely run red lights.
Everett nixed red-light cameras, which would specifically address this complaint. “However, within a few years this intersection will have some upgrades, including a larger westbound right-turn radius that will benefit turning trucks and likely some signal phasing changes,” said Meghan Pembroke, a city spokesperson.
“Our police department is planning some additional monitoring of this location,” she added.
