For about three to four weeks – beginning June 15 through mid-summer – the City of Issaquah will be replacing a watermain pipe and service connections as a part of its Watermain Replacement project.

This project will involve installing new lines to replace existing, aging pipes.

The size of the construction equipment needed for this project will require both lanes of some narrow street sections to be temporarily closed – one location at a time – during normal construction hours.

The streets to be temporarily closed are:

First Avenue Northwest, from West Sunset Way to Northwest Dogwood Street;

Northwest Alder Place, from First Avenue Northwest to Front Street; and

First Place Northwest, from 19 1st Pl. N.W. to 175 1st Pl. N.W.

Access to residences and businesses will be provided during construction.

Construction hours will vary between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Residences and businesses affected by anticipated water shut-offs will be notified 48 hours in advance.

Anyone with questions or concerns can call 425-837-3400.
