→State Route 534 (SR 534) is a short Washington state highway located in Skagit County. The 5.08-mile (8.18 km) long route runs east from Interstate 5 (I-5) in Conway to SR 9 in Lake McMurray. The highway was first designated as a state-maintained highway in 1937, when it became Secondary State Highway 1H (SSH 1H) as part of the creation of the Primary and secondary state highways; SSH 1H later became SR 534 during the 1964 highway renumbering
Route description
State Route 534 (SR 534) begins at an interchange with Interstate 5 (I-5) and the Pioneer Highway (former SR 530) in the census-designated place (CDP) of Conway. From Conway, the road travels eastward to intersect Cedardale Road and cross Carpenter Creek before curving southeast after intersecting Bulson Road. The highway passes Sixteen Lake before ending at SR 9 in the CDP of Lake McMurray.[3][4] At the I-5 interchange, the roadway was used by 8,500 motorists daily in 2007 based on average annual daily traffic (AADT) data collected by the Washington State Department of Transportation.[5]
History
The first highway that would later become SR 534 was Secondary State Highway 1H (SSH 1H), which was first designated in 1937.[6] The road ran from Primary State Highway 1 (PSH 1) in Conway to SSH 1A in Lake McMurray.[6] During the 1964 highway renumbering, SSH 1H became SR 534, PSH 1 became Interstate 5 (I-5) and SSH 1A became SR 9.[7] The Washington State Department of Transportation is currently improving safety on the highway by installing guardrails, removing road debris and improve roadsides; the project began in Spring 2009 and is scheduled to end in Fall 2009.[8]
Major intersections
The entire route is in Skagit County.
