The project is slated to begin Feb. 18, last approximately two months and will include one‑way alternating traffic control, possible partial access restrictions for businesses and potential congestion during school drop‑off and pick‑up times.
“We’ll have inspectors out there to make sure they’re doing the right thing,” Parks said. Staff said communications and construction management will work to minimize impacts and provide advance notice to the public. No council action was required; staff asked council members to share the posted links and construction notices with constituents.
