Survey work continues and expands
The project team continues to survey utilities along East Lake Sammamish Parkway in Sammamish. Currently, this work is on the north end of the parkway. Most survey work will occur on the shoulder on Monday-Friday, between 7 am and 3:30 pm. This work involves no traffic impacts.
Crews will also begin marking streams and wetlands along the project corridor later this month. This work will occur along Northeast Inglewood Hill Road and East Lake Sammamish Parkway, and on the northern part of the East Lake Sammamish Trail. Later this spring, crews will be surveying trees along the project corridor.
Please look out for our survey crews and drive or bike carefully in the area.
