Other Area Projects:

• Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT)’s South Access – Surface Street Connections Project is underway: Due to labor issues, some elements of the project are being postponed. Work on the middle of 1st Ave S and the subsequent work zone shift to the east side of 1st Ave S are currently on hold. Shaft drilling on the SR 99 tunnel operations building is paused as well. The 1st Ave S work zone between S Dearborn St and S Royal Brougham Way will remain in place until further notice. Once construction resumes, some work sequences may be adjusted to seek efficiencies to recover lost time. Expect additional potential traffic flow adjustments as construction proceeds. Visit the project website for details or contact the project at viaduct@wsdot.wa.gov.
