This is a City of Issaquah project.
The City of Issaquah has awarded the contract for the East Lake Sammamish Parkway (ELSP) and SE 43rd Street Roundabout Revisions project. Their contractor will be Northwest Cascade. Construction activities began the first week of June. Work is projected to take approximately two months to complete.
August 5 - 8th Closure: The roundabout closure will begin on Friday, August 5 at approximately 7:00 p.m. This work will create some noise impact at night between the hours of 7:00 p.m. - 11:00 p.m. Paving operations will begin on the morning of August 6. The road will be opened back up on Sunday night, August 8th. During these closures, the intersection will be completely closed to all users. Work will be allowed both during the day and night.
Plan to take alternate routes if possible and expect traffic delays. Variable message boards will be posted at all legs of the roundabout to notify the public of the closure. A detour route map can be found below.
There will be one more closure after the August 5 - 8th closure, to take place approximately three weeks later. This is needed to stripe the roundabout.
More information on this project and the Project Manager's contact information can be found on the City of Issaquah's website, linked here.

Road maintenance on 244th Ave NE near Redmond Fall City Rd, (SR-202)
This is a King County Local Services project.
King County Road Services Division is prioritizing 244th Ave NE near SR-202 to receive snow and ice pre-treatment. Due to a slide occurring in winter 2020, both lanes of 244th Ave NE are narrowed until the impacted support wall can be repaired. The repair of the support wall is expected to begin in Summer 2023. Soil samples yielded unexpected data, which caused the design phase to be extended. King County Road Services Division has a 24/7 Road Helpline - (206) 477-8100. More information on this project can be found linked here.
