Overall Map
Current Status:
The 23rd Ave S roadway construction project is substantially complete and fully open to traffic. Due to a material delivery delay, the traffic signal system for the intersection of 23rd Ave and 42nd St S will not be installed until the spring of 2020.
Project Overview:
The planned work for this project includes the new construction of paved roadways, sidewalks, and incidentals on 23rd Avenue South from 42nd Street to 38th Street and on 41st Street South from 23rd Avenue to 24th Avenue. In addition, new traffic signals and concrete pavement will be installed at the 23rd Avenue & 42nd Street intersection.
Impacts:
- Upon project start, traffic along 42nd Street South between 24th Avenue & approx. 22nd Avenue will be reduced to one lane in each direction with reduced speeds.
- The lane closure, which is scheduled to last approximately 3-4 weeks, is needed in order to allow the Contractor to safely perform the project's intersection improvements at 23rd Avenue & 42nd Street.
