Repairs to a waterline will result in the closure of South 6th Avenue between Yakima Avenue and Chestnut Avenue from Tuesday, February, 6th through Thursday, February, 8th. Work hours on the project will be from 7:00 am to 3:30 pm each day.
Drivers can expect delays in and around the project area and 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.
