Commuters should expect traffic delays due to the Susan G. Komen Seattle 3-Day, scheduled to come through Kirkland on Sept. 19. Heavy pedestrian traffic will be seen throughout the city from 6:30 a.m. until approximately 4 p.m. Participants will remain on sidewalks and follow the rules of the road when crossing the street.
The annual fundraiser, which draws over 1,500 attendees, is a 60-mile walk that starts at the Seattle Center, moves through parts of the east side, before ending at the Space Needle. Net proceeds will help support research, scientific programs and community-based breast health and education programs. For event information, go to the3day.org.
