Roadwork is affecting traffic near you
- Long-term projects: Construction on Aspen Street between Centennial Boulevard and Tamarack Street will start the week of June 15 as part of the GO Bond Street Repair Project. Most of the work should be done by September 4, before school starts, with the whole project finished by October 31. Local access to homes will remain open, but there will be temporary lane and driveway closures, no-parking zones, and possible changes to travel routes. Residents may notice construction noise, dust, and heavy equipment. Advance notice will be given before any closures.
