Over the next two weekends, the intersection of 8th Ave NW and NW 85th St will be closed to traffic so the Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) can rebuild the intersection. The intersection will be closed in all directions and detour routes will be clearly posted.

The work dates (weather dependent) are Friday, Feb 3, to Monday, Feb 6, and Friday, Feb 10, to Monday, Feb 13.

There will be 24-hour continuous work between 6 p.m. on Friday to 5 a.m. on Monday but the noisy work activities will be limited between the hours of 10 p.m. and 9 a.m.

Traffic:

- Follow signed detour routes; avoid cutting through neighborhood streets

- Eastbound detours will remain in place on NW 85th St between 15th Ave NW and 8th Ave NW

- Some Metro bus routes will be affected by this work—look for Rider Alert notices at the bus stops, see reroute information later this week on Metro Online www.kingcounty.gov/metro, or call (206) 553-3000.
