Open for Business
Construction can be considerably tough on business in
the Yelm Highway construction area, so please try to allow room for other drivers to enter and exit businesses when traffic is stopped.
Main Traffic Impacts (See drawings)
Construction should be expected on Boulevard Road at the Yelm Highway intersection through this week and likely Monday. If all goes well work should cease at the Yelm
Hwy-Boulevard intersection.Construction will also continue chugging
along the center of Yelm Hwy centered around Stratford Lane.
Fortunately the trench line will move slightly northward during this
portion of the work and hopefully free up the southern portion of the
road.
Although traffic impact should be minimal to
nothing, expect additional work to take place along the road edges as
the contractor prepares for sidewalk/curb installation and street
lighting.Construction of the Sound/Retaining Walls begins this week starting on the South side of the road at Orvas Court, heading East. This work should not impact traffic, and will take place Monday through Friday.
Possible Alternate Routes
If you are just passing through the
Yelm Highway construction and are looking for an alternate route, but
haven't taken the time to look, here's a nifty map of suggested routes.
