Road Repairs to Impact Traffic on N. 16th Avenue

A road repair project will impact a section of North 16th Avenue tomorrow, Wednesday.

Traffic on North 16th Avenue will be limited to one lane each direction between Jerome Avenue and Cherry Avenue during scheduled project work hours of 7:00 am to 12:00 pm. There is a possibility, however, that traffic impacts could extend later into Wednesday afternoon.

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

During the project, traffic delays in the area are likely to occur. Drivers should use alternate routes until project completion.

Access to homes and businesses in the project area will be maintained as best as possible.

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