The Burke-Gilman Trail will be closed for a stretch May 6 around Seattle’s border with Lake Forest Park so King County Parks can remove six hazardous trees.
The good news is that this stretch parallels Riviera Pl NE, which should be an easy detour route.
Details from King County Parks:
Trail closed between 42nd Pl NE and 40th Ave NE
A contractor working with King County Parks will be removing six hazardous trees leaning out along the trail. The project is expected to take one full day to complete and will begin at 9 a.m. on Monday, May 6, 2019 and be complete by 7 p.m.
Trail users may opt to use Riviera Place NE as a bypass for the duration of the closure. We ask that all trail users please obey all posted trail closure signs as the trail is narrow and the edge drops off quickly around the work site.
Please call 206-477-4527 or email [email protected] with any questions or concerns.
