In each of the three work zones, travel lanes will be generally be reduced to one lane in each direction with restricted turns and from time to time you may expect flaggers to be operating one lane at a time. Please follow posted traffic signs.

Please note that crews will not be working Wednesday, November 11.

Anticipated schedule changes due to wet weather this year
This fall, we will continue demolishing and repaving the roadway, driveways and sidewalks throughout the project corridor. Due to the wet weather, we may need to make last minute schedule changes to paving activities which may include delaying paving activities or starting concrete paving pours as the weather allows.

As a reminder, we aim to maintain access to driveways during demolition, which can last between 1 to 2 weeks in each area. If weather allows, paving will follow and typically require driveway closures for up to 1 week. Continue reading to learn more about our demolition and paving work zones and schedule.

Please plan for these schedule changes and reach out to us if you have any accessibility concerns during this work. You can learn more about typical paving impacts at the bottom of this email. Thank you for your patience during construction.

Side street closures during demolition and paving
As we move along the corridor, there will be instances when we will need to demolish and rebuild the roadway in front of side streets. During this time, you can expect no access to or from Delridge Way SW. We will notify residents if there are any anticipated restrictions to specific properties. While we complete this work, please continue parking in designated parking spots along the street or in personal driveways if applicable.

What to expect during paving 
As we begin paving near residential properties, you may experience impacts to your driveway as we demolish and restore the roadway in front of your property. During this work, you can expect: 

  • Temporary access restrictions in and out of driveways on Delridge Way SW during active demolition
  • Loud hammering, dust and vibrations 
  • During active demolition, onsite crews will be able to provide access to emergency vehicles or for people leaving their homes for emergencies 
  • If you need your car in a timely manner, we recommend parking on side streets. Otherwise, please be prepared for delays and plan to connect with crews onsite to coordinate access. 
  • Steel plates or a gravel ramp will be placed to provide access to the driveways outside of active work hour
  • Up to one week of driveway restrictions as concrete cures directly in front of your property. We will deliver notices to any properties with this impact.
  • Impacted properties will be notified in advance of this work occurring
What to expect during construction
Generally, we anticipate working weekdays between 7 AM and 7 PM.  Impacts will include:
  • Noise, dust, and large vehicle traffic
  • Temporary construction parking restrictions for weeks at a time
  • Periodic traffic detours
  • Vehicle lane shifts around work zones
  • Temporary utility service impacts
  • Flaggers to help direct traffic
  • Temporary bus detours and bus stop relocations
As part of this project, we will be upgrading the roadway throughout the corridor. The roadway above has been fully demolished and is getting prepared for paving. Driveways will be closed as we repave the roadway. You can expect roadway demolition to look like the photo above.
