Pipeline project to cause longterm lane reductions on 112th

The city will reduce segments of 112th Avenue Southeast to one northbound and one southbound lane between Bellevue Way Southeast and north of Southeast Eighth Street starting Monday to replace existing primary sewer pipes with larger ones in response to growth in downtown Bellevue.

The city will reduce segments of 112th Avenue Southeast to one northbound and one southbound lane between Bellevue Way Southeast and north of Southeast Eighth Street starting Monday to replace existing primary sewer pipes with larger ones in response to growth in downtown Bellevue.

Bellevue Utilities will be working on the sewer pipeline project 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays, through early 2016, with the potential for weekend and evening work. Lane reductions will remain in place regardless. The city is warning motorists to expect traffic delays. At some point in the project, the intersection at 112th and 8th will be closed to turning traffic.
