Work continues to move forward on Johnson Avenue.

Starting on Monday, August 12 , the intersection of Johnson Avenue and Jacolyn Drive will close to all traffic for construction of a roundabout.  This work is anticipated to take approximately 6 weeks to complete. Please follow the posted detour using Wiley Blvd, E Avenue, West Post Road, and 1st Avenue during this work.

Opening on Monday
The segment of Johnson Avenue between 1st Avenue and Jacolyn Drive will open to both westbound and eastbound traffic (via 1st Avenue), starting on Monday.

Also opening on Monday: Short St NW (on the north side of Johnson Avenue, between 1st Avenue and Jacolyn Drive).

Elsewhere on the project, the sidewalk and retaining wall work currently underway at Johnson Avenue and Wiley Blvd will be wrapping up soon. Wiley Blvd will be fully open to traffic before the school year starts on August 26. 

Late next week, crews plan to work on topsoil preparation and sod placement throughout the Johnson Ave project, pending favorable temperatures.
