In this update:
This year’s “Beat the Bridge” event will take place from 7:30 to 10 a.m. on Sunday, May 19.
To accommodate the event, the Montlake Bridge will be closed to all vehicle traffic during this time. Additionally, the westbound off-ramp to Montlake Boulevard and the left turn lanes at the eastbound SR 520 off-ramp to Montlake Boulevard will be closed.
Drivers using the eastbound SR 520 off-ramp to Montlake Boulevard will only be able to travel southbound or continue east onto Lake Washington Boulevard.
Local access will be maintained as pedestrian traffic clears. People should use alternate routes and expect delays in the area.
This closure is not affiliated with the SR 520 Montlake Project. For more information, please visit the event page.
To give you as much time as possible to prepare, we want to alert you to a potential closure the weekend of May 31 – June 3.
The closure is tentatively planned for 11 p.m. Friday, May 31, to 5 a.m. Monday, June 3. If confirmed, it could involve the following:
- Montlake Boulevard between East Hamlin Street and East Louisa Street.
- East Roanoke Street between East Louisa Street and 24th Avenue East.
- Lake Washington Boulevard between Montlake Boulevard and East Foster Island Road.
- All SR 520 on- and off-ramps to and from Montlake Boulevard, including the westbound SR 520 off-ramp to Lake Washington Boulevard.
For this closure, crews are planning to install utilities and pave sections of the roadway.
We will keep you posted as we get closer. You can also check our Construction Corner website and the project’s X/Twitter page for the latest closure and construction updates.
This week we began our around-the-clock closure of the westbound SR 520 off-ramp to East Roanoke Street. Crews are using this closure to continue work on a nearby retaining wall, drainage and utility work, and some paving of the ramp.
Travelers heading westbound on SR 520 will need to exit at Montlake Boulevard, use I-5, or take alternate routes.
