Wastewater construction leads to lane closures along 73rd Avenue Northeast in Kenmore

Work related to King County's Brightwater Treatment Plant construction project will restrict traffic along 73rd Avenue Northeast in Kenmore for the next few weeks.

Flaggers will be alternating one lane of north- and southbound traffic for about 200 feet during daylight construction hours, as a crew installs manholes and a wastewater diversion structure along 73rd Avenue Northeast near the Northeast 192 th Street intersection in Kenmore.

Traffic during non-construction hours will be able to flow on one lane in each direction.

Project managers say local access will be allowed between Northeast 192nd Street and 73rd Avenue Northeast. The temporary reroute is expected to end during the first half of April.

More information on the Brightwater project is available at http://dnr.metrokc.gov/WTD/brightwater/index.htm on the Internet, or by calling the Brightwater construction information line, 206-205-5989.
