Commuters should expect even more lane restrictions along Dexter Ave N on Wednesday, July 27 and Thursday, July 28 of this week – SDOT and its contractor will be repaving the construction ridden thoroughfare between McGraw Street and Garfield on both days, weather permitting.
Crews will begin paving work at 7 a.m. on Wednesday on the west side of McGraw Street, moving south as work progresses. Work should conclude by 5 p.m. each day. From SDOT:
Shortly after paving is complete, temporary traffic markings and striping will be applied.
During working hours one lane in each direction will be maintained. There may be times when traffic will be reduced to one lane for both directions with flaggers at either end. Parking and loading zone restrictions will be in place near the work zone and its approaches. Pedestrian access will be maintained.
Also on July 27, Dexter Way North between State Route 99 and Dexter Avenue North will be closed from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
This project is funded by the “Bridging the Gap” transportation levy approved by Seattle voters in November 2006.
