For those who ride the Burke Gilman Trail north, there will be work done in Kenmore and Bothell February 23-26 which will require a short detour and dismount.

Beginning Feb. 23, there will be trail repair work along the Burke-Gilman Regional Trail in the vicinity of the Kenmore and Bothell city limits.

Trail users will be routed onto a short detour along NE 175th St., adjacent to the Blue Trees art landmark at Swamp Creek while repair work takes place at the Swamp Creek Bridge along the Burke-Gilman Trail.

Also, approximately an 1/8th of a mile east at 84th Ave NE, there will be 185 lineal feet of slump repair work taking place. 

Trail users will be asked to dismount and walk this stretch along the trail adjacent to and for the length of the construction area.

Given the favorable weather forecast next week, the work at these two areas will be taking place over four consecutive days between Tuesday, February 23 and Friday, February 26.
