Memorial Highway's east half is nearly complete with all lanes open, and the west half is moving into storm sewer work. First Street reconstruction is wrapping phase one and starting phase two, and the old Terra Valley lift station is officially offline. Several projects should wrap by mid-August.

Major roadwork is moving fast: the east half of Memorial Highway is nearly done, downtown 1st Street phases are trading off, and traffic patterns at Main Street and Memorial Highway have shifted since the holiday. Expect closures on 8th Avenue NW this week for a sewer tie-in.

Memorial Highway's east half wraps this year, First Street reconstruction is underway, and about 60 downtown concrete panels are being replaced starting this week — all at the contractor's expense due to faulty 2020 work. Traffic patterns shift at Memorial Highway and 46th starting the next morning.
