Due to construction, there are some detours around the construction site at the Snohomish County Courthouse. Those who need to visit the campus for the next several months will find a new pathway to the County Administration Building. Construction of the Pacific Avenue and Rockefeller Avenue parking ramps to the county’s underground parking garage has closed the main east and west sidewalks that lead to the administration building.
The courthouse entrance is not affected.
A new entryway to the administration building has been constructed just north of the courthouse entrance. The pathway is marked.
From Pacific Avenue, use the newly constructed sidewalk on the Mission building’s east side.
