Beginning today (Tuesday, Jan. 6) a Seattle Department of Transportation crew will begin two weeks of repair work on the Burke Gilman Trail in the 6900 block of Seaview Avenue Northwest.

During the work, bicyclists will be diverted into the adjacent northbound curb lane of Seaview Avenue and pedestrians will be sent across the street to the western sidewalk.

While the right northbound curb lane is temporarily in use by the bicyclists, the lane will be closed to motor vehicles. Signage will clarify the brief detour; the work hours will be from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. The city expects to complete this work by the week of Jan. 19.
