Nighttime work for sewer line installation is planned March 29 through April 8 along East Mill Plain Boulevard between Northeast 92nd and 97th Avenues.
The construction, performed by contractor Tapani Underground of Vancouver, will take place between 8 p.m. and 5 a.m. to help reduce impacts to traffic on the busy roadway. The work is part of a city of Vancouver project to extend sewer lines to serve 39 residential properties just east of the North Garrison Heights neighborhood, according to a city press release.
During the work, traffic on this stretch of Mill Plain will be reduced to one lane in each direction. Drivers, bicyclists and pedestrians are urged to move slowly, use caution and be alert to signs, narrowing lanes and construction equipment. If possible, use alternate routes to avoid the work zone.
When the sewer line installation is done, the pavement will be temporarily patched. Curb-to-curb overlay paving will occur during the summer as part of the city’s annual pavement management program.
