Corridor Work to Close Section of North Street for Four Weeks
Major construction projects are underway in the area, impacting traffic and pedestrian flow. The city is actively improving various corridors and streets to ensure better safety, accessibility, and overall infrastructure. One such project involves a section of North Street that will be closed for approximately four weeks, disrupting daily commutes.
Several other areas are also undergoing significant changes. For instance, work is ongoing on the Washington Stevens Bridge, which will be closed for around four weeks. Outside of these major closures, many additional streets are experiencing lane restrictions and other limitations to facilitate roadwork. This comprehensive effort aims to improve traffic flow, pedestrian safety, and overall urban infrastructure.
Some notable projects include a .3 million grind and overlay initiative on Lincoln Road between Division and Standard Street, a .3 million project constructing a stormwater flow control vault, and a million traffic calming project on Ash Street. These improvements will enhance the overall quality of life for residents and visitors alike.
Meanwhile, in neighboring areas, other construction projects like the I-17 Improvement Project in Arizona are also taking place. This project includes widening 15 miles of roadway, replacing two bridges and widening 10 others, and constructing eight miles of flex lanes. It is expected to last until 2025 and will maintain limited lane closures during peak travel times to minimize disruptions.
