Sound Transit
Update: University of Washintong Station
Beginning this Thursday March 27, through Saturday, March 29, Sound Transit’s contractor will restore the sidewalk and curbs on the eastside of the intersection at Montlake Blvd. and Northeast Pacific Street. In order to do this work, crews must intermittently close one northbound traffic lane and the east sidewalk south of the intersection of Montlake Blvd. and Northeast Pacific Street.
To minimize traffic impacts, the lane closure will be in effect from Thursday, March 27, 7 p.m. through 3 a.m. and Friday, March 28, from 7 p.m. through 5 p.m. Saturday, March, 29*.
• Signage and flaggers will help direct pedestrians and bicyclists around the work.
• Crosswalks across Montlake Blvd. at Northeast Pacific Street will remain open.
