Everett Is Celebrating the New Edgewater Bridge on April 27 — You’re Invited
The City of Everett has officially announced the grand opening celebration for the new Edgewater Bridge. The event takes place on Sunday, April 27 at 3:30 PM, and the entire community is welcome to attend.
Attendees will get to walk across the new bridge, hear remarks from Mayor Cassie Franklin and city leaders, and speak directly with the project team about what went into building it. It’s the kind of local infrastructure moment Everett doesn’t get very often — a brand new bridge connecting neighborhoods, built from the ground up.
What Is the Edgewater Bridge?
The Edgewater Bridge is a new City of Everett infrastructure project connecting neighborhoods near the waterfront area. The project was a multi-year effort involving coordination between the City of Everett and the City of Mukilteo. The new structure replaces aging infrastructure and improves pedestrian and vehicle access in the area.
The April 27 celebration gives Everett residents a chance to be the first to walk across it — and to get the full story of the project from the people who made it happen.

With the Sound Transit Link Extension moving forward, waterfront development accelerating, and now a brand-new bridge opening, this is an active stretch for Everett’s built environment.
