  1. Bellevue Meydenbauer Flood Control Project

  2. During extreme storms, there can be significant flooding in the vicinity of NE 8th St and 100th Ave NE, which impacts people who live, work, and shop in the area. What is the Meydenbauer Flood Control Project? In 2013, intense rainfall in June and September created floodwater that spilled onto private property, causing damage and disrupting the community.

  3. The Meydenbauer Flood Control Project will address this recurrent street flooding by constructing a bypass pipeline to better convey stormwater during heavy rains. The project will also optimize the capacity of the existing storm drain system on 100th Ave NE Between NE 8th St and NE 12th St. What is the expected outcome of the project?

  4. The project is located near NE 8th St and 100th Ave NE, within Bellevue’s Central Business District. Where is the project located?

  5. The anticipated project schedule is: • Spring 2020: Start construction • Winter 2020: Complete construction When will this work take place?

  6. Construction Information What to expect during the construction phase of this project…

  7. Once the construction phase of the project commences in Spring 2020, construction will take place Monday through Friday from 7 AM to 3:30 PM. • One exception is the intersection of NE 8th St and 100th Ave NE where construction will take place over the weekend (exact weekend to be decided). • Construction in the street will pause for the July 4th holiday (no work starting noon July 3rd), the Bellevue Arts Fair, Susan G. Komen Day or the Cure, Memorial Day and Labor Day. What times and days will construction take place?

  8. King County Metro will alert riders with route revisions, temporary bus stops, and other updates. For more information and to sign up for King County Metro alerts, please visit the following webpage: https://kingcounty.gov/depts/transportation/metro/alerts-updates.aspx How will construction impact transit?

  9. Stores will remain open during their usual hours throughout the construction period. Access will be maintained to all shopping areas, the Bellevue Mall, and stores near the construction site. How will construction impact shopping?

  10. When a sidewalk needs to be closed, the City will provide a detour route that meets standards set by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). How will construction impact bicyclists and pedestrians?

  11. The City will communicate with residents and businesses in the vicinity of the construction site to provide them with information about what they can expect during the construction of the Meydenbauer Flood Control Project. The project webpage will be updated on a regular basis to inform people about the weekend in which construction will take place. Subscribe for project updates at www.bellevuewa.gov/MeydenbauerBasin. How will the City of Bellevue mitigate the impact of construction site noise?

  12. Detour routes will be posted when streets and sidewalks need to be closed. Check the City of Bellevue’s Traffic Advisories map for the latest information about construction work that can affect travel on city streets and sidewalks. https://bellevuewa.gov/city-government/departments/ transportation/traffic-conditions/traffic-advisories How will the City of Bellevue mitigate the impact of street closures and lane reductions?

  13. In Fall 2019, the City of Bellevue will conduct outreach to apartments in the vicinity of the project site. The City will also send out a flyer in the mail to residents and businesses that might be affected by construction.
