Repairs to the Eastside Interceptor (ESI) 14 pipe that runs under the Cross Kirkland Corridor (CKC) Trail are complete. The CKC trail between NE 52nd Street and 108th Avenue NE is now open. Some equipment will remain along the trail side for summer repair work.
Culvert repair starts this summer
Although the pipe repairs are complete, crews will return this summer to stabilize and repair a rockery wall and culvert located beneath King County’s pipe. This work will provide long-term protection for the repaired pipe and trail.
To support this work, the existing 3,000-foot temporary above-ground sewer pipe and the excavated access points will remain on the west side of the trail. Until the summer construction begins, the access points will be covered with steel plates and fenced off. During the repair work this summer, the CKC Trail section between NE 52nd Street and 108th Avenue NE will be closed. Tree planting and equipment removal will take place after the culvert repairs are complete. Updates will be provided as repair planning progresses.
