King County begins construction this month on two more Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) projects, and this set will speed up traffic flow in busy corridors north of Kirkland.

The county’s latest ITS projects focus on two streets in the Juanita area. Overall, the work includes interconnecting traffic signals at 10 intersections on 100th Avenue Northeast and Juanita-Woodinville Way Northeast/Northeast 160th Street. These projects will also connect to the existing ITS system on Northeast 124th Street in Totem Lake to provide a network of traffic coordination in unincorporated areas of King County on either side of Interstate 405 north of Kirkland.

Construction on the Juanita projects will last through June. During the installation, traffic disruptions should be limited to lane and shoulder closures between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. on weekdays.
