This weekend, three lanes of northbound I-5 will be closed between the I-405 interchange and the Duwamish River Bridge from 8 p. m. Friday, August 25, to 5 a. m. Monday, August 28.

The construction aims to repave the Interurban and Duwamish River bridges while also replacing expansion joints on the Interurban Bridge, contributing to improved road safety and longevity. Traffic disruptions are expected, prompting local commuters to consider alternative routes to minimize delays. The project reflects Tukwila's ongoing investment in infrastructure, ensuring that the city's roads remain safe and well-maintained for residents and travelers alike. As construction continues, the city emphasizes the importance of public awareness about these changes. With significant traffic volume in the area, the timing of this work is crucial for managing congestion.

This endeavor not only addresses immediate road issues but also showcases the city's proactive approach to urban development and maintenance. Residents are encouraged to stay informed about future construction projects that may impact their travel.
