As Sammamish prepares to sign a design contract for improvements to Sahalee Way, residents are being invited to attend an open house from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 19 at the Boys and Girls Club, at 825 228th Ave. NE.

This will be the third open house for a 1.75-mile project that will stretch along Sahalee Way from Northeast 25th Way to the northern city limits. Among other things, the improvements will include a median strip with turn pockets, a sidewalk on the west side, bus turnout locations and improved lighting.

The preferred design option to be presented at the Oct. 19 open house will reflect the public input received from residents at the first two public meetings. Its anticipated construction will begin in 2018 or 2019.
