State Route 908, commonly known as SR 908 or Highway 908, is a state highway in the U.S. state of Washington. It runs easterly about 3 miles from eastern Kirkland to central Redmond. SR 908 is entirely within King County.
Route description
SR 908 starts at its western end when Central Way in Kirkland crosses under Interstate 405, at Exit 18 of I-405. SR 908 proceeds due east through Kirkland as Northeast 85th Street. At the Redmond-Kirkland border (which is also the intersection of SR 908 and 132nd Avenue Northeast), SR 908 turns to the southeast and takes the name Redmond Way. It descends slightly until it reaches Willows Road Northeast, at which point a view of the Sammamish River Valley appears and the road's descent increases markedly. SR 908 then reaches downtown Redmond, where it ends at its intersection with State Route 202. The road itself continues for two blocks as Redmond Way/SR 202, a two-lane, one-way eastbound street, before becoming Redmond-Fall City Road/SR 202 and continuing to Fall City.
While SR 908 is officially classified as a child route of I-90, the two roadways never connect and are about 10 miles apart. The child of I-90 classification is a result of SR 908's formation from SR 901, which did connect to I-90.
History
SR 908 was created in 1971 from State Route 901 (which no longer exists). At its creation, SR 908 extended from Redmond through Kirkland and south to intersect State Route 520. On April 1, 1992, the path from SR 520 to I-405 was dropped from the state highway system, yielding the present path of SR 908.
