Some 70 days later, the work crews are still hard at it on 10th Ave E. There’s another detour planned for this weekend’s northbound traffic, SDOT says. If you forget what they’re working on, here’s an overview. Here’s this weekend’s update from SDOT:

The Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) and its contractor will continue work on street improvements on 10th Avenue East this weekend. The street will be closed to northbound traffic from East Boston to East Lynn from 7 a.m. on Saturday until Sunday evening. One southbound lane will remain open.

A substantial detour will be in place: Vehicles heading north will be detoured at the north end of the Broadway commercial district and directed to use E Roy Street to Belmont Avenue E to Lakeview Boulevard E to Boylston Avenue E to E Roanoke Street.

Vehicles heading westbound on E Boston Street will be detoured around the construction using Federal Avenue E to E Lynn Street.

Detour routes will be clearly posted. Police officers will be on site to keep traffic moving. Pedestrian access to all businesses and residences will be maintained.

Crews will build a concrete lane on the east side from the East Lynn Street to East Boston Street.
