Temporary Closure of SE Veterans Way at Railroad Crossing

0

CLOSURE DATES: June 22 through June 25, 2020

On Monday, June 22, 2020, the City of Redmond Public Works Department, in partnership with Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF), will initiate substantial maintenance activities on SE Veterans Way at the railroad crossing east of US Hwy 97. Work includes improvements of the rail crossing, and a complete asphalt grind and new asphalt inlay of 364 lineal feet of roadway.  Crews will be taking advantage of the forecasted warmer weather and ideal construction temperatures to complete these activities.

“We would have preferred to do this work while traffic counts were lower these last few months,” said Brad Haynes, Transportation Division manager, “however, we chose to coordinate the City’s asphalt maintenance in conjunction with the BNSF rail crossing improvements to minimize closure duration and impacts to motorists.”

The road closure will begin at 7am on Monday, June 22 with an anticipated project completion date by Thursday, June 25 (weather permitting).

SE Veterans Way is a primary route of travel to the Redmond Airport and the adjoining industrial area. Please consider the closure when planning your commute. Motorists are encouraged to use detours as posted.
