Cross Kirkland Corridor closes for quick maintenance

Crews working on the Cross Kirkland Corridor (CKC) will require the trail’s closure between Northeast 112th St. and 110th Ave. Northeast this Thursday from 7 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

Signs are currently posted and will remain during the closure. There is no provided detour due to the short, single-day time-frame.

Crews will be using large vehicles for excavation and other purposes to maintain the ditches. The type of work and equipment is unsafe for pedestrians and bicyclists to navigate around.

The work being done will lessen the likelihood of trail damage and needed maintenance in the future by ensuring that the ditches along the CKC can redirect rainfall and other surface water. This will protect against flooding and trail washouts.
