The drive down 8th Ave NW is about to get greener: the Seattle Department of Transportation is about to plant new trees in the missing spaces along the center median between NW 65th St and NW 85th St.
The Seattle Department of Transportation’s Urban Forestry Division will carry out the work — they’ll be out planting between NW 65th and 75th Streets on Dec. 5 and 6, and will do the strip between NW 75th and 85th Streets on Dec. 12 and 13.
SDOT says there will be some no-parking signs on nearby streets, as crews will need to park trucks loaded up with trees and tools.
