[edit] Route description

SR 505 starts at the intersection of Kerron Street and Walnut Street in Winlock. It continues east to Interstate 5, then follows Toldeo-Winlock Road into the town of Toledo. It winds through Toledo on 5th Sreet and Kellog Way until heading east on Cowlitz Street to State Route 504.

[edit] History

Until 1992, SR 505 from I-5 west to Winlock was part of State Route 603, which continued north from Winlockthrough Napavine to SR 6 about two miles west of I-5 in Chehalis. Several changes were made to the state highways throughout Washington in 1992, and at that time the section from SR 6 to Winlock was turned back to the county, while the rest became a part of a realignment of SR 505. State Route 603 still exists as a connector from SR 6 to Napavine.
