Overnight ramp and road closures at SR 520 and West Lake Sammamish Parkway NE

Beginning as early as Wednesday, Nov. 17th, crews will begin nightly closures of the onramp and offramp between eastbound State Route 520 and West Lake Sammamish Parkway Northeast. Crews will also be closing West Lake Sammamish Parkway Northeast to through-traffic between Redmond Way and Tosh Road on Nov. 17th – 19th.

These traffic revisions are being used to allow crews to install girders which will support the future light rail's elevated guideway. The elevated guideway will allow future light rail to travel over the onramp and offramps to West Lake Sammamish Parkway Northeast as it parallels SR 520 towards Downtown Redmond.

Please see map of the expected closures and recommended detour route.
