CONSTRUCTION UPDATE:
 
Various traffic changes are taking place in the coming weeks. These locations are bolded below.
 
Major roadwork has wrapped up at the north end of Mary Jane Boulevard. Striping has been completed.  
 
Connected to this, but part of a different MDT project, crews are working on the installation of a signalized intersection where Mary Jane Boulevard connects to Broadway.
 
The Flynn and Broadway intersection continues to be closed. Work is estimated to be completed by the end of the week. All businesses on this stretch of Flynn Lane will be accessible. Traffic will be directed to use Mary Jane Boulevard to access Broadway.
 
In addition, a detour remains on Mullan Road located immediately east of Flynn Lane. The westbound traffic has been shifted onto the roundabout, and eastbound traffic will be on the detour for a few more weeks. Here, crews are continuing paving of the roundabout and utility work at the intersection of Mary Jane Boulevard and Mullan Road. 
 
George Elmer Drive between Mullan Road and Bell Tower Road remains closed through the end of construction season for roundabout installation. Traffic continues to be detoured. Drivers are directed through the detour on Mullan Road via the newly construction frontage road. George Elmer South curb work is progressing as fast as possible along with all roundabout concrete work to prep for paving. 
 
The the intersection of England Boulevard and Flynn Lane is back open, following work concluding on Friday. Crews completed water main and intersection improvement work. 
 
Similar to past weeks, utility and water work is taking place on England Boulevard between Flynn Lane and George Elmer Drive. 
 
Please prepare for 10-20 minutes of delays when traveling through any of the above work zones. 
 
Mark your calendars: A second construction open house is scheduled on Tuesday, September 27 from 4:30pm – 6:30pm at the Hellgate Elementary School Cafeteria in Building 3. The project team will be present to answer questions. No formal presentation will be made. Please join us to ask questions and learn more.
