  • Long-term projects: – Paving work is happening on East 24th Avenue, Hilyard Street,and Alder Street, but traffic impact is expected to be low. – Construction at the intersection of W. 30th Avenue and Portland Street is causing moderate traffic impacts. – Hilyard Street is closed to all traffic except emergency vehicles between 36th and 38th Avenue for the entire week.
