Section of SR 302 closure begins today
A nine-day closure of a section of state Route 302 at Little Minter Creek is set to begin at 9 p.m. today.
Construction crews working for the state Department of Transportation will install two culverts to improve fish migration under the highway.
During the round-the-clock closure, detours will be in place. Passenger vehicles should follow a detour between 118th Avenue Northwest and 134th Avenue Northwest. Semitrailers and oversized loads should follow a detour using Routes 302, 3 and 16, which will add an estimated 25 minutes of travel time.
Check detour routes at http://www.youtu.be/vPF50z4laz8.
Once the culverts are installed and the road reopens, scheduled at 5 a.m. Aug. 20, drivers can expect alternating one-way traffic until the project is complete.
