A speed hump installation project will result in the closure of a portion of 56th Avenue on Thursday, October 10th.
While the project is underway, the section of 56th Avenue between Tieton Drive and Arlington Avenue will be closed to traffic. Work on the project will take place from 7:30 am to 3:00 pm on October 10th.
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.
Access to businesses in the project area will be maintained as best as possible and emergency vehicles will be allowed through the project area.

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