Bridge Street widening project update (Friday, Jan. 5):
(The following schedule is weather dependent and subject to change)
- Working hours will take place from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
- Crews will be working on box culvert extensions and storm sewer and waterline installations on Bridge Street between 22nd Avenue and Sierra Street. Lane shifts are in place within this stretch with a single lane of thru-traffic open in both directions. This traffic reconfiguration is permanent and will remain in effect for the duration of Phase I of the project, which is expected to continue for the next several months.
- For drivers traveling westbound on Bridge Street, there will be no left turns onto 27th Avenue. Drivers are encouraged to continue west to make a lefthand turn at 22nd Avenue.
- Crews will continue to relocate existing power lines and will begin fiber optic relocations within the project zone next week.
- Trucks and heavy equipment will continue to enter and exit the roadway within the project zone, so drivers are encouraged to slow down, watch for workers and equipment, and leave plenty of space in between vehicles. Please be mindful and exercise extreme caution when traveling through construction areas.
