Roadwork is affecting traffic near you
- Long-term projects: – Construction is happening near the corners of 18th and Hilyard Street this week. Lanes may be reduced to a single lane, so expect moderate delays.
- There is limited construction in the parking lot at Willamette Street and West 52nd Avenue this week as the project nears completion. Expect moderate delays.
- Portland Street from W 30th Ave to W 29th Pl on the west side, including some parking areas north of W 29th Pl to W 28th Ave, will be closed during construction. Pedestrians cannot use the west side of Portland Street between W 30th Ave and W 29th, but can cross at the northwest corner of W 30th Ave and Portland St to use a temporary sidewalk and ramp on the east side. Pedestrians on W 30th Ave west of Portland St should use the temporary walkway on the north side of W 30th Ave to reach Portland St. Watch for large trucks and equipment.
- McLean Boulevard has finished paving, but utility work continues through Friday. Two detours are in place: one reroutes traffic from before Graham Drive through Lasater, Randy, and 29th streets back to McKendrick Street and McLean Boulevard; the other directs Graham Drive traffic to Chambers Street via 28th Street. Detours will be removed once work is done.
- Paving work is happening this week on Vine Maple Street, Spring Boulevard, Pine Canyon Drive, Huckleberry Street, and South Ridge Drive, including nearby sidewalks. Roads may be narrowed to one lane or temporarily closed, causing moderate delays.
- Crews are working on paving and finishing touches in the areas of Hilyard Street (from 40th to 34th Avenue), Friendly Street and 18th Avenue, 24th Avenue (from Hilyard to Agate), and Alder Street (from 30th to 32nd). Expect low impact as the project is nearly complete.
- Crews are working on E 23rd and E 24th avenues between Willamette Street and Amazon Parkway this week for wastewater pipe rehabilitation. Some work is also on Willamette Street. Southbound traffic on Willamette just south of 24th Avenue will be shifted into the center lane. The sidewalk at the southwest corner of Willamette and 24th Avenue is closed, with pedestrian signs.
- Crews are working on Patterson Street between E 18th Ave and E 24th Ave this week for a safety pilot project. Old road markings are being removed and new ones installed. Traffic is limited to one lane on the side opposite the work area.
