The Main Street Revitalization Project on 236th Street SW and 56th Avenue W is ready for base layer paving of the northern side of 236th Street SW. This intersection will be fully closed beginning Sunday morning, October 6 and is expected to remain closed until the evening of Friday, October 11.
With rain forecast, the end dates of the closure may shift by one or more days. Please follow our social media sites and website for updated information on any changes to this schedule.
Traffic will be detoured onto 58th Avenue W and alternate travel routes are strongly advised. Drivers should expect significant traffic delays during construction.
Businesses near this intersection will remain accessible throughout the closure and we encourage the community to continue to visit them during this time.
Following this paving work, travel within the construction zone will generally return to normal until the top-most asphalt layer can be paved in warmer spring weather. Work by the city’s contractor and utility companies is expected to continue throughout the fall and winter along roadway shoulders and not impact traffic.
Weekly travel advisories on construction projects throughout the city are provided online at www.cityofmlt.com/208 (traffic alerts) and are shared on social media.
For further information, contact Public Works Director Eric LaFrance at elafrance@ci.mlt.wa.us or (425) 744-6221.
