Construction on 15th Ave NW

Crews continue to work on *15th Ave NW at NW Market St, NW 54th St, NW 52nd St, NW 50th St, and W Emerson St.* Through this construction we will upgrade ADA accessible ramps, rebuild sidewalk corners, install upgraded traffic signals and cameras, improve storm drainage, and repair the sidewalk and roadway in select areas. 

Crews also plan to do some *weekend work* to reduce construction impacts on traffic*. *At the 15th Ave NW and NW 50th St intersection, crews will complete an underground drainage crossing to improve storm drainage on Saturday, September 28. 

You may have also noticed that we began work on W Emerson St this week. This work was not previously announced, but our construction team needed to adjust their schedule for efficiency.  

*What to Expect * 


* Construction is typically scheduled Mondays – Fridays from 7 AM – 5 PM. The bulk of the overnight work will be from 7 PM – 5 AM.  

* Overnight work is noisy but within allowable noise levels. You may hear loud humming and a sound like a big vacuum. You may also feel mild vibrations. 

* Paving dates may change based on weather conditions, crew and materials availability, or other circumstances. You may also smell odors associated with asphalt paving. 

* We will close driving lanes on 15th Ave NW and NW Market St near work areas. There will always be at least one lane open in each direction. The turn lanes will remain open at intersections.  

* We will close the sidewalk in work areas. There will be detour signs in place to direct you around construction.   

* We will close NW 54th St, NW 52nd St, and NW 50th St to thru traffic as needed between 17th Ave NW and 14th Ave NW. You will still be able to walk, roll, bike, or drive to businesses and homes on these streets.   

* We will temporarily move the D Line bus stops at 15th Ave NW and NW Market St. Please see bus stops for new locations and/or sign up for transit alerts [ https://kingcounty.gov/en/dept/metro/routes-and-service/schedules-and-maps/d-line.html?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery ].   

* We will temporarily change parking in some areas for construction staging and traffic control near work sites.

Construction on Ballard Bridge

As a reminder, the Ballard bridge will be closed over several weekends in September and October to complete maintenance and preservation work on the 107-year-old bridge. *The next scheduled bridge closure is Friday, September 27 through Monday, September 30.* We also have closures scheduled for: 


* Friday evening, October 4, 2024, through Monday morning, October 7, 2024 

* Friday evening, October 11, 2024, through Monday morning, October 14, 2024 

* Friday evening, October 18, 2024, through Monday morning, October 21, 2024 

Lane closures may begin as early as 7 PM on Friday, with the bridge fully closed at 10 PM. The bridge is expected to reopen by approximately 5 AM the following Monday. For more information about the closures and how to get around, please read SDOT’s blog post [ https://sdotblog.seattle.gov/2024/08/27/ballard-bridge-weekend-closures/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery ]. 

*Please note:* Bridge closure dates and times may change based on weather conditions, crew and materials availability, or other circumstances.  

If crews are unable to complete maintenance and preservation work during the scheduled bridge closures due to weather, weekday overnight partial bridge closures may occur so crews can complete the work. We recognize that closing Ballard Bridge can affect your travel plans, and we appreciate your patience and understanding.

How to Get Around During Bridge Closures

*If you drive …* 

Please use the Aurora Bridge (SR 99). If possible, please walk, bike, or take the bus to reduce traffic.  

*If you take the bus …* 

Your route will be changed to cross the Fremont Bridge instead of the Ballard Bridge, which may result in delays. Plus, stops just north and south of the bridge for the D Line and #17 may be moved.  


* The northbound bus stop at 15th Ave NW and Leary Way NW will be moved just north of NW Leary Way on the east side of 15th Ave NW.  

* The southbound bus stop on 15th Ave NW and Leary Way NW will be moved to the south side of Leary Way NW on the east side of 15th Ave NW (same stop as the route 40) 

* The southbound bus stop at 15th Ave W and W Emerson St will be moved south, just across from W Ruffner St 

Please sign up for King County Metro alerts [ https://kingcounty.gov/en/dept/metro/rider-tools/service-advisories/transit-alerts-signup/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery ] for the most current information.  

*If you bike, walk, or roll … * 

We will keep the path on bridge open on at least one side as long as it is safe. If you can’t get to side that’s open, or if both sides are closed, please take the D Line bus.
