Toll Testing Causes Overnight Closures on SR 520

One direction of the State Route 520 floating bridge will be closed overnight Tuesday evening through Thursday morning as state transportation crews test new tolling equipment.

According to the Washington Department of Transportation (WSDOT), a gradual closure will begin at 11:30 p.m. Tuesday, when crews shut down one lane of westbound traffic between 92nd Avenue Northeast and Montlake Boulevard.

The second lane will close at 11:59 p.m. One lane will reopen at 4:30 a.m., and both lanes will be open by 5 a.m.

The same closures will affect eastbound traffic from 11:30 p.m. Wednesday through 5 a.m. Thursday. For more information, see WSDOT's construction update website.
