What to expect during construction

We expect to build this project in 2026. During construction, you can expect: 

• Crews working from 7 AM to 5 PM, usually on weekdays but sometimes on weekends
• Noise, vibration, dust, and debris
• “No Parking” signs at least 72 hours before construction starts
• Construction materials and parking impacts near the work sites
• Crosswalk and sidewalk closures, and detours for people walking and biking
• Temporary traffic lane changes 
• Changes in construction schedules due to weather or the availability of work crews and/or materials

Funding

This work is funded by the 2024 voter-approved Seattle Transportation Levy and directly supports our Vision Zero goal to end traffic deaths and serious injuries on city streets by 2030.
