Drivers should prepare for brief overnight closures a few dates this month of northbound and southbound State Route 167 in Kent, Renton and Auburn.

Contractor crews working for the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) will be installing sign bridges and toll gantry structures as part of the SR 167 Corridor Improvements Project, according to WSDOT.

Once the project is complete, travelers will experience new, modern SR 167 express toll lanes that tie into the Renton to Bellevue I-405 express toll lane system, currently under construction, and the express toll lanes to Lynnwood, which opened to the public in 2015, according to WSDOT. The long-term vision includes a 50-mile express toll lane system between SR 512 in Puyallup and the I-405/I-5 interchange in Lynnwood.
