Revive I-5 traffic closures return to Seattle Friday
The next phase of I-5 rehabilitation in Seattle means more summer closures and delays for drivers.
Beginning Friday, April 5, crews contracting with the Washington State Department of Transportation will launch "Revive I-5" for the southbound lanes of the freeway. Drivers who use southbound I-5 through downtown Seattle late at night and during early morning hours should plan on taking additional routes and expect delays.
Though the summer, crews will work on about 4 miles of southbound I-5 between Spring Street in downtown Seattle and South Lucile Street near Boeing Field. Crews will repair and replace concrete panels, grind the surface of the pavement, and repave several on- and off-ramps.
Closures will occur as early as 8 p.m. on weeknights and 9 p.m. on weekends.
At times, all lanes of southbound I-5 will be closed through downtown, shifting traffic into collector-distributor lanes.
The majority of the work is weather-dependent.
