A section of North 1^st Street will be one lane each direction tomorrow morning, Thursday, July 21^st, for a beautification project.

City crews will be working in flower beds along North 1^st Street between the north end of the I-82 interchange to I Street. Traffic restrictions will be in place during scheduled project work hours of 6:00 am to 10:00 am.

Because of heavy traffic volume, drivers can expect delays in the project area. Drivers should use alternate routes if possible until the work is completed. 

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

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 Acting Street Maintenance Supervisor Jay Kendall at 509-576-6443.
