The Montlake Bridge will be closed to traffic this weekend, beginning on Saturday morning, September 24th, at 5 AM. Boat traffic requiring the raising of the bridge, will be restricted to a few times during the weekend.
Drivers and boaters should plan ahead for major closures in Seattle’s Montlake neighborhood this weekend while Washington State Department of Transportation maintenance crews replace sections of the deck across the Montlake Bridge.
“By replacing portions of the bridge deck now, we will save drivers delays in the future from emergency maintenance closures,” said Washington State Department of Transportation Bridge Maintenance Specialist Tim Ditch.
