Roadwork is affecting traffic near you

  • Long-term projects: Construction on South Garden Way between north of Kinsrow Avenue and Commons Drive is causing moderate traffic impacts from Monday, October 26 to Friday, October 30. The southbound lane is closed, and all traffic is being directed into the northbound lane by flaggers. Pedestrians are being detoured to the east sidewalk, and the southbound bike lane is closed, so cyclists need to merge with southbound traffic. The northbound bike lane remains open. Large trucks and equipment are present in the area.
