SDOT‘s most recent update said that various safety work on East Marginal Way, a major route for bicyclists to and from West Seattle and beyond – and scene of a deadly collision in May – was targeted for completion by November. Today, we’ve just received word of work planned this weekend:

Paving crews from the Seattle Department of Transportation will repair the pavement on East Marginal Way South just north of South Hanford Street this weekend, working from 7 am to 7 pm on both Saturday and Sunday.

One lane in each direction will remain open on East Marginal Way with bikes merging with general traffic. A Police Officer will assist traffic turning left from East Marginal Way to South Hanford Street—there will be no left-hand turn lane. Drivers may want to use an alternate route to avoid delays.

If you’re not certain about that exact location – here’s a map.
