Water Service Line Repairs to Restrict Traffic on Lincoln Avenue

Water service line repairs will result in traffic restrictions on Lincoln Avenue between North 20th Avenue and North 16th Avenue on Thursday, May 17th.  Work on the project will begin at 7:00 am and last until 3:30 pm.

Traffic will be channeled around the project area. Because of heavy traffic volumes on Lincoln Avenue, drivers can expect delays. Drivers should use alternate routes if possible until the work is completed.

Drivers are reminded that the speed limit through all traffic-related works 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 Water Distribution Supervisor Emilio Lopez at 575-6196.
