Nighttime lane closures and rolling slowdowns will bring delays to eastbound I-90 between Seattle and Bellevue this weekend, March 3-4. The Washington State Department of Transportation is closing two mainline eastbound I-90 lanes and the I-90 express lanes in order to install new signs over I-90 as part of the second stage in the two-way transit and HOV operations project.

The closures begin at 9 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday nights. Rolling slowdowns will take place from midnight to 4 a.m., and the lanes will re-open at 8 a.m., Sunday, and 5 a.m., Monday.
