In response to your inquiry, I am happy to say that we will not be
keeping the Burke-Gilman Trail under the Fremont Bridge closed for another
year.
The Burke-Gilman Trail will remain closed until some time in September
for construction on the Fremont Bridge with a detour on N 34th Street.
Seattle Department of Transportation’s (SDOT’s) contractor for
our bridge project is grading for paving in the next two weeks. As soon
as the trail is ready for public use, we will open the trail to
bicyclists and pedestrians.
SDOT previously announced that the Burke-Gilman Trail would remain
closed in the vicinity of the Fremont Bridge through the summer of 2008 due
to nearby construction of the Lakeview Building, a private
development. When this issue came to my attention, I reviewed the needs of the
private project and the property easements under the Fremont Bridge and
determined that the Burke-Gilman Trail can safely remain open during
construction of the nearby private development.
Sincerely,
Grace Crunican, Director
Seattle Department of Transportation

Which arrives on September 28th. I wonder what "some time" in September they are planning in re-opening the trail. The 29th? 30th? Oh, some time in September next year. Silly me...

I guess my previous reply had too much profanity... it seems to have been removed.
There is a nice fresh coat of pavement down there. While admiring it, I asked the construction worker in a hard hat if they were all done. Yep the pavement is done, was his reply, but the trail won't be open for use for about a month.
