I-90 Bridge Repairs Require Weekend Lane Reductions Sept. 5-7

Snoqualmie, WALocal News

Weekend lane reductions on westbound I-90 in Issaquah from Sept. 5-7 will significantly disrupt local traffic as crews conduct essential bridge repairs. The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) plans to close up to three left lanes, leaving only one lane open for through traffic. A second round of lane closures is scheduled for Sept. 12-14, where crews will close right lanes and the Front Street off-ramp.

Drivers should expect considerable delays during busy travel times and should consider alternate routes. This work is part of a broader project addressing pavement issues along westbound I-90. The repairs, which include replacing aging pavement and waterproof membranes, aim to prolong the lifespan of the bridges originally built in the early 1970s. WSDOT reminds travelers to check their mobile app or travel map for real-time updates. Additional lane reductions may occur during daytime hours on Sept.

6, affecting both directions of I-90.
