The roadway begins at SR 104 in Edmonds and travels east past SR 99, Interstate 5 (I-5), under I-405, past SR 527 and SR 9 to end at SR 522 in Maltby. The road also has two spur routes, one connecting to SR 104 in Edmonds and another connecting to I-5 in Lynnwood. First appearing on a map in 1895, the highway was designated as part of Secondary State Highway 1W (SSH 1W) in 1957 during an extension from Edmonds to Lynnwood. SSH 1W was extended further to SSH 2J (present-day SR 527) in 1959 before becoming SR 524 in 1964. A final extension east to SR 522 was completed in 1991.

Famous quotes containing the words washington, state and/or route:
“I thought it altogether proper that I should take a brief furlough from official duties at Washington to mingle with you here to-day as a comrade, because every President of the United States must realize that the strength of the Government, its defence in war, the army that is to muster under its banner when our Nation is assailed, is to be found here in the masses of our people.”
—Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
“Feign then what’s by a decent tact believed
And act that state is only so conceived,
And build an edifice of form
For house where phantoms may keep warm.”
—William Empson (1906–1984)
“no arranged terror: no forcing of image, plan,
or thought:
no propaganda, no humbling of reality to precept:
terror pervades but is not arranged, all possibilities
of escape open: no route shut,”
—Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)
