The Alaskan Way Viaduct in Seattle will be closed this weekend.
The viaduct will close beginning at 11 p.m. on Friday. It is scheduled to reopen Monday at 5 a.m.
Crews are working to reinforce sections of the viaduct through downtown in preparation for the tunneling to begin on the viaduct replacement project.
Travis Phelps, with the Washington Department of Transportation, says there may be one more weekend viaduct closure this month.
He says there will likely not be another weekend closure after that until October, when the viaduct undergoes its annual inspection.
