The Redmond Way Overlay project will repair and resurface approximately 1.8 miles of worn and damaged pavement running east of 132nd Avenue Northeast to Bear Creek Parkway. This work is the first significant maintenance project for this stretch of Redmond Way since 1994. The city assumed control of the road from the state in 2010.
