Important Traffic Update for EvergreenHealth Primary Care and Urgent Care, Lakeshore Totem Lake Patients – Effective August 13
Beginning August 13, the City of Kirkland will be extending a centerline curb on Totem Lake Boulevard to address a serious pedestrian safety concern. As a result, the southbound left-turn lane into the EvergreenHealth Lakeshore Clinic will be permanently closed.
Patients approaching from the north will no longer be able to turn left directly into the clinic's entrance. Instead, please continue south past the clinic, make a legal U-turn near Totem Lake Village, and then head northbound to turn right into the clinic.
For those arriving from I-405, we recommend exiting at NE 124th Street and turning north on Totem Lake Blvd NE for an easier right-hand turn into the clinic driveway.
We appreciate your understanding as the city works to improve safety for everyone traveling through this busy corridor.
