Heads up: The ER access route at Squalicum Parkway & Ellis Street has reopened, with freshly laid asphalt covering a new underground electrical duct system. Crews will focus next on installation along the section of the road closest to the ER entrance. This will have two significant impacts on public access:
đź’ From Tuesday, Jan. 20, through approximately Feb. 5, motorists dropping off patients at the ER entrance will need to enter at Squalicum & Ellis, NOT via the current main Emergency Department driveway farther west on Squalicum.
💠About 20 patient/visitor parking spaces outside the ER entrance will be closed during this time. There should be plenty of additional parking in the surface lot to the west, and we’ve designated 10 spaces on the east side of the Northwest Medical Center, aka Fountain Building, for ER parking. You’ll see those on your left if you enter campus at Squalicum and Ellis.
Thanks for your patience while we keep things moving and safe! Learn more about the Peter Paulsen Pavilion project: https://ow.ly/p7KS50XZSxX.
