Asphalt Restoration Work to Restrict Traffic on Tieton Drive

Asphalt restoration work will result in traffic restrictions on Tieton Drive between 32nd Avenue and 29th Avenue starting tomorrow Wednesday, July 7h through Thursday July 8th. Work on the project will begin each day at 7:00 am and last until 3:30 pm.

Traffic will be limited to one lane in both directions in the project area. Due to heavy traffic volumes on Tieton Drive, drivers can expect delays. Drivers should use alternate routes if possible until the work is completed.

Drivers are reminded that the speed limit through all traffic-related works zones within the City of Yakima is 20 miles-per-hour.

Access to homes and businesses in the project area will be maintained as best as possible and emergency vehicles will be allowed through the project area if necessary.

As always, the schedule for this type of project is subject to change daily dependent on weather, equipment failure, and emergencies.

For more information about the project, contact Water Distribution Supervisor Emilio Lopez at 575-6196.
