Council approves 120-day closure of Hauser Way North for water-main, drainage work tied to I‑405 project

The Renton City Council voted to concur with the Transportation Aviation Committee and adopted a resolution authorizing a temporary full closure of Hauser Way North between Lake Washington Boulevard North and Lowe's business delivery access for up to 120 days between Sept. 2 and Dec. 31, 2025. The committee report said the closure will permit construction of a City of Renton water main and improvements to storm drainage that support the I‑405 Renton-to-Bellevue widening and express toll lanes project. Council Member McGurwin presented the Transportation Aviation Committee report and moved that council concur with the committee recommendation; another council member seconded and the motion carried on a voice vote, recorded as affirmative. The resolution delegates the temporary closure authority to facilitate the public-works construction described in the committee report; the transcript does not list detour routes or traffic-mitigation details, which will be addressed in construction plans and public notices from the city's transportation staff.
