Sewer Project to Restrict Traffic on W. Nob Hill Boulevard

Traffic will be impacted on a section of West Nob Hill Boulevard tomorrow, Wednesday, March 3rd, for a project to replace a sewer manhole cover.

The City of Yakima Wastewater Division will work on the project from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm tomorrow. During work hours, the project will require reducing traffic to one lane in each direction on West Nob Hill Boulevard between South 46th Avenue and South 48th Avenue.

Due to heavy traffic volumes on West Nob Hill Boulevard, drivers can expect delays and 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.

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 Wastewater Maintenance Supervisor Robert Brown at 406-7103.
