[edit] History

In the 1970s, after SR 524 and SR 104 already had their routing through Edmonds in place, the Washington State Ferries moved the toll booth and holding area for the Edmonds ferry terminal off the pier and along SR 104. This made the ferry terminal inaccessible from westbound SR 524. Thus, a spur route was signed south along Third Avenue and Pine Street to connect with SR 104 and the ferry terminal.
