Northbound Traffic Only on NW Main Street from NW Chipman Road to NW Commerce Drive Beginning March 28

Northbound Traffic Only on NW Main Street from NW Chipman Road to NW Commerce Drive Beginning March 28

A section of NW Main Street from NW Chipman Road to NW Commerce Drive is set to close to southbound traffic beginning Monday, March 28, weather permitting, and will be open for northbound traffic only until August 2022. This change in traffic is to facilitate the reconstruction of NW Main Street with a new concrete curb and gutter road and sidewalks. Access to the businesses along NW Main Street will be maintained at all times. The contractor plans to close and rebuild the east side of the road first and will swap traffic and rebuild the west side once the east side is complete.

In addition, the contractor will be adding new sidewalk along NW Commerce Drive between NW Main Street and NW Chipman Road.  This work will not require any changes to the traffic pattern along NW Commerce Drive.
