Council adopts resolution authorizing short Hauser Way closure for I-405 project
Summary
Council adopted a resolution authorizing a temporary full closure of Hauser Way North for work on storm drainage beneath BNSF tracks supporting the I-405 Renton-to-Bellevue widening; the closure window includes 08/07/2026–10/12/2026.
The Renton City Council voted to adopt a resolution authorizing a temporary full closure of Hauser Way North between Lake Washington Boulevard North and the Loews Business Access Road to allow removal of an obstruction beneath BNSF railroad tracks and to construct storm drainage for the I-405 widening and express toll lanes project.
The Transportation & Aviation Committee recommended concurrence with staff, and the resolution states the closure may occur for up to one full week within a window that begins Aug. 7, 2026 and extends through Oct. 12, 2026 to accommodate potential discovery of unforeseen obstructions. Committee members explained the extended window is to allow schedule flexibility during coordination with contractors and railroad operators.
Council moved to concur with the committee recommendation and adopted the resolution. Council members noted they expect efforts to minimize traffic disruption and to provide timely public notice of the specific closure dates.
