As part of the Washington Way Improvement project, the Washington Way north sidewalk and cycle track will be closed between SW 30th and SW 35th St. starting Wednesday, May 21 through Friday, May 23.

Pedestrians and cyclists may use the multi-use path on the south side of Washington Way as a detour through this section.

There will also be intermittent traffic pattern changes in this section of Washington Way. Vehicle traffic will be controlled by flaggers as needed.

Other possible impacts include noise, dust and mud near the work zone.

Please note: this closure will occur in two phases.

Tuesday, 5/20: a section of the north sidewalk and cycle track on Washington Way will be fully closed at the SE corner of Goss Stadium. The multi-use path on the south side of Washington Way will also be unavailable due to a separate closure. For this one-day sidewalk closure, pedestrians will detour around the work zone via the closed roadway. Signs will be in place to direct pedestrians.

Wednesday, 5/21 – Friday, June 6: the work zone will shift to the roadway. Washington Way will be fully closed in both directions between the Goss/Dixon driveway and SW Benton Place (SE corner of Goss Stadium). The intersection at 17th St. and Washington Way will be closed. Pedestrians should plan to use the north sidewalk, due to the closure of the south multi-use path.
