State Route 99, abbreviated SR 99, commonly called Highway 99, is a numbered state highway in the U.S. state of Washington extending just over 50 miles from Fife in the south to Everett in the north.
SR 99 originates at Interstate 5 in Fife, near its own intersection with 54th Avenue E. From there, it heads eastward to Federal Way and intersects SR 18 just west of its interchange with I-5. It then begins to travel north, through Des Moines, overlapping SR 509 for a few miles. The route becomes a little difficult to identify for several miles, as there are no reassurance signs until entering SeaTac. Once there, it becomes International Boulevard and forms the eastern boundary of the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport until crossing SR 518, where it becomes Pacific Highway South and becomes a suburban thoroughfare.

In the U.S. state of Washington, U.S. Route 2 is the northernmost all-weather highway through the Cascade Mountains. It runs from Everett east to the Idaho state line in Newport, crossing the Cascades at Stevens Pass and passing through Wenatchee and Spokane.
The westernmost point of US 2 is the city of Everett in Snohomish County.
From the highway's terminus at SR 529 in Everett, US 2 runs along California Street westbound and Hewitt Avenue eastbound.[1][2] The roadway then ascends to a short freeway and has an interchange with Interstate 5 0.13 miles east of this terminus.
Leaving downtown Everett/I-5, the highway crosses the Snohomish River and goes across the river valley to the northern (compass east) side of the valley. It stays to the north of the river valley for 27.8 miles before it crosses the Skykomish River near Gold Bar.
