WA HB1772

Local authorities may designate any nonarterial highway as a "shared street" where pedestrians, bicyclists, and vehicles share the same roadway space, provided the authority has developed procedures for establishing such streets

Vehicular traffic on shared streets must yield right-of-way to pedestrians, bicyclists, and micromobility device operators; bicyclists and micromobility users must yield to pedestrians

Local authorities may set a maximum speed limit of 10 miles per hour on shared streets without requiring an engineering and traffic investigation

Standard pedestrian roadway restrictions (such as requirements to use sidewalks or yield to vehicles when jaywalking) do not apply on shared streets

Bicycle lane positioning requirements and vehicle passing rules for vulnerable roadway users are exempted on shared streets
