NE 145th Street reopens Thursday, September 18, 2025

Shoreline, WALocal News

NE 145th Street and the southbound I-5 exit ramps will reopen on September 18, 2025, after 24 days of construction. The project introduces a new roundabout at the west end of the I-5 overpass, with a temporary single-lane traffic configuration while work proceeds. This development significantly enhances mobility and safety in the corridor, a critical concern for local residents. Crews will continue to operate in the area, encouraging drivers to exercise caution and follow posted signs. A second roundabout is expected to open at the east end of the I-5 overpass in early 2026, with the intersection remaining signalized until that time.

The construction project aims to improve traffic flow and reduce congestion in the region. For additional questions or concerns, residents can call the 24-hour construction hotline or access the project webpage for more information. Public support and patience have been vital during this closure period.
