45th Street Viaduct Project Update

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

The Seattle Department of Transportation issued an update today on the project to replace the 45th Street viaduct, which spans from the upper campus area to University Village.

Drivers who frequent the area are probably aware that the viaduct closed last month and will continue to be closed up until the first home football game of the season, Sept. 11 vs Syracuse.

Here's what the SDOT had to report today:

"Effective immediately until early August, SDOT has closed the connections of 21st and 22nd Avenues NE to NE 45th Street to complete the installation of a combined sewer overflow system. Local access only from other connecting streets will be allowed along 21st and 22nd Avenues NE during this time. This work is a part of the NE 45th Street Viaduct Project to replace the aging west approach. NE 45th Street will be completely closed to all traffic, bicycles and pedestrians between Montlake Blvd NE and 20th Avenue NE from June 14 - September 10, 2010."
