New SDOT Project Coming to Your Neighborhood!

In 2011, the Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) will reconstruct 15^th Avenue NE between NE Pacific Street and NE 50^th Street, and resurface the roadway between NE 50th Street and NE 55th Street. The 15^th Avenue NE Reconstruction Project is anticipated to begin in January 2011 and is scheduled to be complete by October 2011.

The project will likely be conducted in three phases:

• Phase 1 (January – June): NE Pacific Street to NE 45th Street
• Phase 2 (June – September): NE 45th Street to NE 50th Street
• Phase 3 (September – October): NE 50th Street to NE 55th Street

The project is currently in the final design stage and will be advertised for competitive bids from contractors in September 2010. A more detailed construction schedule will be available in late 2010. Improvements to 15^th Avenue NE include upgrades to pedestrian mobility, sidewalk widening at bus zones, new electrical infrastructure for future transit improvements, and upgraded street lighting.
