The recent closure of 98th in Kirkland | Letter

The recent closure of 98th in Kirkland was an inconvenient closure for many people, regardless of freeway access and their "timing."

The recent closure of 98th in Kirkland was an inconvenient closure for many people, regardless of freeway access and their “timing.” And consider that freeway access still can be out of the way for many people.

Disregarding this, an explanation of what was done would be appreciated. After discussing this with several people we all had the same thoughts. Slurry is possible but that wouldn’t require complete closure for such a long period of time. Perhaps lights which would be great considering how dark it can get. Botts? Wonderful! It sure needs it.

Regardless, all these didn’t require complete closure for, which changed midstream, nine hours a day for 10 days. And nothing was done as far as we can know.

Where was the money spent?

[This was a] very inept disclosure of intent.
