Northeast 68th Street between Northeast 10th Avenue and Northeast 14th Avenue in Hazel Dell will be closed to through traffic beginning June 24 for construction associated with the Northeast 68th Street Sidewalk Project.
The closure is scheduled for 45 working days. Construction is weather dependent, and closure start and end dates are subject to change. During the closure, local access will be accommodated for residents within the closure area and for emergency vehicles.
Travelers should choose an alternate route during the closure and follow posted detour signs.
The detour will take travelers onto Northeast 79th Street and Northeast St. Johns Road to the north, or Northeast 17th Avenue and Northeast Minnehaha Street to the south.
The project’s goal is to make the area safer for pedestrians by adding sidewalks and marked pedestrian crossings. More information about the project, a detour map and project updates are available at clark.wa.gov/public-works/northeast-68th-street-sidewalk.
