In this update:
Planning to host or attend a party for the big game this weekend? You’ll also need to plan for a "super" weekend closure of both directions of Montlake Boulevard between East Hamlin Street and East Louisa Street.
The closure is from 10 p.m. Friday, Feb. 9, until 5 a.m. Monday, Feb. 12. All SR 520 on- and off-ramps at Montlake will also close. A bicycle and pedestrian detour will be available through the work zone.
Drivers heading east on SR 520 from I-5 will have to pay the SR 520 bridge toll as the Montlake Boulevard exit will be closed.
Great news! The SR 520 Trail reopened Friday, Feb. 2, after a two-week closure.
Cyclists and pedestrians will notice the new section of the trail is a bit narrower – this is temporary. Crews still have some barrier work to do and have put up a fence to protect trail users.
Thank you again for your patience during this work. We’ve been so excited to get you on the trail again we made a Tik Tok about it.
We’re holding our next Montlake Project monthly meeting virtually at 12:30 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 14 – Valentine’s Day! Join us to learn about current and upcoming construction activities, including planned street and highway closures. Register below to attend and participate in a Q&A.

Thanks to all who attended our Montlake Project signage community meeting last week. Your valuable feedback and participation were greatly appreciated.
You can view the presentation (PDF 1.3MB) on our webpage. In the coming weeks, we’ll also send out additional meeting materials, including a link to the meeting recording, a detailed meeting summary with answers to follow-up questions, and a reminder about the next steps in this process. We’ll also post meeting materials on the Montlake Project webpage under the “Related links” tab.
Interim signage plan
To ensure the project remains on schedule for its completion in spring 2024, we're currently working on a temporary signage plan. The plan includes placing smaller signs on the existing sign bridges to help drivers navigate new turns in the area. This temporary signage will stay in place while we finalize recommendations, confirm funding, procure new materials, and implement the recommended adjustments. Given the lead time for both procuring and installing new sign structures, this process could take approximately a year or more to be completed.
