Traffic Advisory Westbound I-90 Down to One Lane in Issaquah, Sept 12-14

Snoqualmie, WALocal News

WSDOT has postponed weekend lane closures on westbound I-90 in Issaquah, originally scheduled for Sept. 5-7, to Sept. 12-14 due to unfavorable weather conditions. The upcoming work will reduce traffic to one lane around-the-clock for bridge repairs, potentially causing significant delays for drivers. Residents should consider alternative routes and stay informed through WSDOT's travel updates.

The bridge maintenance will replace aging pavement and waterproof membranes while repairing expansion joints on structures built in 1970 and 1971. This work is part of a broader project aimed at enhancing the lifespan of these bridges. More lane reductions are anticipated later in the month, with specific dates to be announced. Additionally, lane closures are planned on other nearby highways, including I-405 in Bellevue, for paving and drainage work. Drivers are urged to remain vigilant for real-time travel updates via the WSDOT mobile app and website.
