Today and tomorrow, September 17 and 18, a Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) crew will be repaving Seventh Avenue NE between NE 45^th and NE 50th streets.

Working from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day, the crew will grind down the pavement today and apply a new layer of asphalt to the street tomorrow.  The I-5 ramps at NE 45^th and at NE 50^th will remain open during the work.  However, traffic on Seventh Avenue NE will be restricted to motorists needing local access and Metro Transit operations only.
