the 2011 Arterial and Collector Pavement Preservation project is scheduled to begin construction activities on Tuesday at the intersection of West Valley Highway and 15th Street Northwest.

The work will be on the west side of the intersection. Lane restrictions will be in effect. Traffic will be controlled using cones, flaggers and police officers. Working hours are from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.

During construction, the intersection will remain open to traffic, but traffic will be reduced to one lane with alternating one-way traffic on 15th St NW at times. This work is weather dependant. Traffic delays should be anticipated and alternate routes are strongly advised.

For further information, call the City of Auburn Public Works Department at 253-931-3010.
