This Sunday, October 10, from 7 a.m. – 4 p.m., the two right lanes that merge northbound onto Aurora Avenue N from Denny Avenue will be closed to traffic.  During the closure, a Seattle Department of Transportation Urban Forestry crew will remove four large trees that have damaged the sidewalk at that location.  Traffic will be detoured around the work area via eastbound John and Thomas Streets, north on Dexter, and then return back onto Aurora from Dexter via westbound Harrison Street. Westbound Thomas to Aurora will be closed.  The primary detour will be Denny eastbound to Dexter, north on Dexter to Harrison Street, and then west on Harrison to northbound Aurora. Traffic entering Aurora Avenue N from the Battery Street Tunnel northbound will not be impacted.
