Yesterday, Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) crews began the task of sealing cracks in arterial asphalt streets throughout Seattle, three of which are here in Wallingford (listed below). According to SDOT:
This process will reduce the amount of water that seeps under the pavement during the year causing potholes and other roadway damage.
The crews plan to start in the northern part of the city and work towards the south, although the schedule and order may change depending on the weather and other unforeseen factors.
No street closures will be required, but there will be lane closures of up to four hours and on-street parking will be restricted. ‘No-parking’ signs will be posted 48 hours in advance. SDOT crews will work to minimize any delays and will provide assistance as needed. Traffic flaggers will be present during maintenance work. Sidewalks will remain open at all times.
The crack-filling work will be done at the following Wallingford locations:
- Latona Avenue NE, between NE 45th Street and NE 50th Street
- Thackeray Place NE, between NE 45th Street and NE 50th Street
- N 40th Street, between Wallingford Avenue N and Latona Avenue NE
