Temporary southbound bus lane closure on Bothell Way NE between NE 157th Pl and NE 157th Ln
Starting Thursday, Dec. 18 through Friday, Dec. 19, Sound Transit will temporarily close a portion of the southbound bus lane on Bothell Way NE between NE 157th Pl and NE 157th Ln for geotechnical work. This geotechnical work will help us obtain information to design a retaining wall along the west side of Bothell Way NE. The retaining wall will support road widening and other street improvements such as dedicated bus lanes for the Stride 3 Line Project. King County Metro bus stops are not directly impacted by this work; buses will have to merge into general purpose traffic lanes to get around the work area (see map below).
