Work on the Nelson Phase 2 Pipeline project will result in traffic restrictions on West Powerhouse Road between South Naches Road and Ackley Road starting Wednesday, November 13th and lasting through Friday, November 15th. Work on the project will begin at 7:00 am and last until 3:30 pm each day.
Traffic will be limited to one lane on West Powerhouse Road. Flaggers will be in place to route traffic through the work area. Due to heavy traffic volumes on West Powerhouse Road, drivers can expect delays. Drivers should us alternate routes if possible until work is completed.
Drivers are reminded the speed limit through all traffic-related work zones is 20 miles-per-hour. Access to surrounding businesses 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.
