Trail closure around mile 3.5 from Maple Valley. Huge washout.

Trail bridge is currently closed a few miles from Maple Valley - sign says May 8 reopening but locals tell me it closes every year and typically takes longer than the signed date.
Speed limit is 10mph in Renton city limits.
A very pleasant asphalt to soft surface trail that follows the Cedar River (and unfortunately also 169 so there is quite a lot of road noise).
