Drivers are encountering the following at the intersection of Fair Avenue and Nob Hill Boulevard starting this morning, Monday, April 13th, and continuing through the end of April:
- Fair Avenue is completely closed at the intersection. A detour route is available via E. Mead Avenue and Pacific Avenue.
- Nob Hill Boulevard is one lane each way through the intersection. The signal is turned off during the Fair Avenue closure, allowing Nob Hill traffic to go through the intersection unimpeded.
The above closures are in effect 24/7 through April 30th. They are required so crews can complete roadway surfacing for a Nob Hill/Fair Avenue project that began last year.
Access is maintained to properties in the project area.
Drivers are asked to consider alternate routes if possible during these closures as there will be traffic delays. If driving through the project area, please proceed with caution.
As always, the schedule for this type of project is subject to change daily dependent on weather, equipment failure, and emergencies.
For more about the project call City of Yakima Chief Engineer Dana Kallevig at 509-575-6048.
