The following is a release from the Washington State Department of Transportation:

Weekend drivers heading to the Totem Lake area from northbound Interstate 405 this weekend should plan ahead to use alternate routes.

Contractor crews working for the Washington State Department of Transportation will close the northbound I-405 off-ramp to Northeast 124th Street/Totem Lake Boulevard as part of the I-405 Bellevue to Lynnwood Widening and Express Toll Lanes project.
