Redmond So Far Escapes Heavy Flooding

While the Puget Sound region is being pounded with rain, so far, Redmond’s roads have not suffered any major flooding. As of 4pm, the Public Works Maintenance and Operations Center has placed cautionary signs on NE 95th Street at Willows Road due to standing water but traffic is making it through the intersection slowly.

“While our stormwater system is definitely being taxed, Redmond has been spared some of the disruptive flooding of surrounding cities,” states Bill Campbell, Public Works Director. “However, we continue to keep a close eye on the situation and will notify the public should that change.”

Redmond residents or business owners who need to report flooding in their area should call the City at 425-556-2701 to report it during regular business hours of Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm. After hours, the Police should be notified at 425-556-2500. As always, call 911 immediately if the situation is dangerous.
