The Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) will close one lane in each direction on N. 45th St tomorrow (Saturday, May 19) to remove a large tree and install two new permanent poles between Green Lake Way N. and Stone Way N. The closures will happen between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m.
From SDOT:
During the majority of the work the roadway will be reduced to one lane in each direction. While the tree is being removed, the roadway may be reduced to a single lane for both directions, alternating traffic with the assistance of flaggers. On-street parking restrictions and loading restrictions in and around active work areas will also be in place.
The work is being done as part of the Priority Bus Corridor Projects, which will benefit Route 44. SDOT expects work to be completed by late summer.
