Over the next several weeks, the City of Lake Forest Park will conduct its annual street overlay project.

Neighborhoods selected this year include the Horizon View neighborhood and portions of the easterly part of the City.

The City’s overlay project is contracted through the King County Roads Division to achieve the best pricing on all portions of the work: engineering, inspection, notification, asphalt grinding, and the asphalt overlay itself.

Work was scheduled to begin on August 1, but the contractor, Miles Resources, is ahead of schedule and prep work will begin on June 30, 2017. Paving starts July 12, and will take approximately two weeks. It is anticipated all work will be complete by August 4.

The paving schedule and project notifications will be placed on A boards at the entrances to the affected neighborhoods.

Before work begins, restricted parking signs will be posted along the edge of the roadway. Residents are advised to take necessary steps to move all parked vehicles off the shoulder of the roadway, as this will help avoid project delays.
