Monday 4/20/2026 through Friday 4/24/2026

• Installation of new storm, wastewater, electrical service connections, and surface improvements will affect portions of E 17th Ave, east of Agate St to Columbia St. E 17th Ave to Moss Ave, and portions of Columbia St and Columbia Alley during construction work.
• Detours for vehicular traffic will be set at Agate St, E 17th Ave, Columbia St, Moss St, and E 19th Ave as work progresses.
• Pedestrian access will also be impacted and detoured on all affected streets during construction.
• Bike lanes will be closed and merged with shared use in traffic lanes on Agate St to the west and Moss St to the east.
• Please be aware of large trucks and equipment in the area while construction continues.

construction crews will be working at the corner of Maxwell & Prairie Rd. Additionally, they will be working to the east on Maxwell Rd up to the overpass bridge. Crews will be excavating and constructing new sidewalks to connect the River Rd neighborhoods to the Bethel neighborhoods. This new walk section will connect to the brand-new walk section on Hwy 99 at Prairie Rd. 

East bound Maxwell Rd is closed at Prairie Rd. Traveling public is encouraged to use either Beltline to NW Expressway, Beltline to River Rd, or Chambers Rd to River Rd. 

Crews are working in the road way so please respect the cones and signage for everyone’s safety. 

When the project is completed there will be the new sidewalks and a new railroad crossing. This project is funded with Federal and state funding. The railroad has funded their own crossing upgrades.

Hilyard 36^th to 38^th Ave – Hilyard will be closed in this 2-1/2 block section to all traffic except Emergency Vehicles for the entire week. Vehicular users shall use West Amazon or Donald St for north/ south travel. Side streets off of Hilyard are open to traffic, including E 39^th Ave/ Dillard is open from Hilyard. Temporary ramps will be made for the few homes in this stretch that only have access from Hilyard. All others shall use side streets to access to and from their homes. Wednesday and/or Thursday the road construction activities may seem quieter as the contractor allows the cement treated roadway base time to cure before placing the asphalt surfacing on top on Friday

This project will replace the span wire signal at 18th Avenue and Hilyard Street with a mast arm signalized system. The signal upgrade will include a new bicycle signal for westbound bikers on 18th Avenue as they approach the intersection with Hilyard Street and improvements to signal timing to reduce potential crashes.

Crossing distance for pedestrians at the intersection will also be reduced by installing curb extensions and new ADA compliant curb ramps.

Construction started the week of April 27 and is scheduled to be completed no later than September 30, 2026.

Local access to homes will be maintained during construction, though temporary lane closures, driveway closures, and no parking zones will occur. You may experience changes to normal travel routes, along with construction noise, dust, and heavy equipment. Advance notice will be provided before any driveway, parking, or lane closures.

Construction is expected to begin the week of June 15, 2026. Most work is anticipated to be completed by September 4, 2026, before the start of school, with the full project scheduled for completion by October 31, 2026.
