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 eastside, 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.
