Issaquah-Hobart Road detour
Southbound Issaquah-Hobart Road is closed under SR 18 while crews replace a retaining wall that washed out in the January 2009 floods. Signs will direct bicyclists onto the shoulder of westbound SR 18 to 244th Avenue SE, then onto SE 216th Street back to Issaquah-Hobart Road. The length of the detour is approximately five miles. Please see the attached map for clarification.
This detour will be in place for the month of August. It does not affect northbound cyclists on Issaquah-Hobart Road. Because of the roadway constraints and limited sight distance, it’s not safe to allow cyclists to use the northbound lane.
Maintenance crews have swept the shoulder of westbound SR 18 so it should be clear of debris.
