Starting August 22nd, Seattle Public Utilities crews may be doing soil investigation work in the middle of Leary Way NW, near 2nd Ave NW, where the roadway curves off of N 36th St.  The work could take up to five days to complete, and could disrupt traffic, while restricting parking in the area.

The soil investigation is part of the Ship Canal Water Quality Project, and the proposed building of an elongated sewer overflow tank between Ballard and Fremont, along the Leary corridor.  At this location, crews will drill 6-inch diameter holes to depths of up to 150-feet, refill the holes and restore the surface, before they finish.
