Speed Bump Projects to Impact Traffic on 24th and 26th Avenues

Projects involving installation of speed bumps will impact traffic on sections of 24th Avenue and 26th Avenue for most of the day on Monday, November 20th.

As a result of the projects, the section of 24th Avenue between Englewood Avenue and Lincoln Avenue, as well as the section of 26th Avenue between Tieton Drive and Arlington Avenue, will be closed from 7:00 am to 3:00 pm on November 20th.  Detour routes around the project areas will be available and will be marked with appropriate signage.

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

During the projects, traffic delays in the affected areas are likely to occur.  Drivers should use alternate routes until the project is completed.

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

As always, the schedule for these types of projects is subject to change daily dependent on weather, equipment failure, and emergencies.

For additional information about these projects, contact Streets and Traffic Operations Manager Joe Rosenlund at 576-6430.
