POSTPONED: The work scheduled to begin at 8 p.m. Friday, Aug. 9, is postponed due to rain in the forecast. The next weekend of work now will be Aug. 17-18.

For the next two weekends, WSDOT will reduce the SR 99 Aurora bridge to one lane in each direction for paving. Work on both weekends is weather-dependent.

Lane reductions will be from 7pm Friday, August 9 to 5am Monday, August 12, and will be the same the following weekend, August 16 to August 19.

The on-ramp to southbound SR 99 from Fremont also will close at 7pm, along with the off-ramp from southbound SR 99 to Raye Street.

People should expect heavy traffic on SR 99 as well as in the Wallingford, Queen Anne, Fremont and Ballard neighborhoods. Plan ahead and, if you can, try alternatives like walking, bicycling or transit.
