Major Delays This Weekend on SR520 in Redmond

This camera is on the Northside of SR520.   (Upated every 1.5 minutes)

Drivers should plan for long delays and take alternate routes this weekend as crews completely close a portion of eastbound SR 520 in Redmond. From 10 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Monday crews will close all lanes of eastbound SR 520 between SR 202 and Avondale Road.

This work begins the final phase of the SR 520 widening project in Redmond. During the closure crews will pave the highway and move barrier to create a new work zone in the median. Until now crews have been working on the north and south sides of the highway.

All eastbound SR 520 traffic will exit at SR 202, take a right onto SR 202, left onto 180th Avenue SE, left onto Union Hill Road to Avondale Road. Drivers headed for the Sammamish Plateau are encouraged to take I-90 to East Lake Sammamish Parkway. Drivers coming from I-405 can use SR 908 to get to downtown Redmond.
WSDOT will be working with the city of Redmond to keep traffic moving as much as possible along the alternate routes.
