I-405, Kirkland Nickel Stage 1 - February 2007

Crews setting bridge girders
Crews set new girders over a two-night period for the new bridge over NE 116th
Street. The new bridge will be wider than the old one, and will be completed this fall.

Crews setting girders at night
Crews set the bridge girders during the nighttime, to minimize inconveniences to
drivers on NE 116th Street. I-405 remained open to traffic while the girders were set.

New plants along Kirkland noise wall
Crews recently began planting hundreds of new plants along the I-405 corridor in
Kirkland.
