Updates on the two Aurora construction projects

  • Continue nighttime installation of underground traffic detection systems for signals. Traffic will be reduced to one lane north and southbound on Aurora.
  • Grind and level base paving on Aurora, N 175th Street, and N 185th Street at night in preparation for final paving. Expect lane closures on Aurora, N 175th Street and N 185th Street and higher noise volumes.
  • Continue forming and pouring pedestrian islands on N 185th Street west of Aurora. Traffic will be reduced to one lane westbound on N 185th Street.

  • Continue landscaping along Aurora. A single north and southbound lane on Aurora may be intermittently closed.


N 185th - N 192nd Streets (Johansen Excavating)

This week, crews will:
  • Continue controlling the intersection of Aurora and N 192nd Street with uniformed police officers as needed. Officers may at times prohibit left turns onto N 192nd Street due to significant backups on Aurora or for safety concerns.

  • Complete grading activities on Aurora adjacent to the Shoreline Park & Ride and begin pouring concrete curbs and bus pads.
  • Continue excavating the western slope (north of Maaco Auto Body) and existing asphalt in the work zone on the west side of Aurora north of N 192nd Street.
  • Begin installing underground communication services following asphalt removal and roadway excavation. Temporary crushed rock driveways will be installed to maintain access to businesses.
  • Continue retaining wall construction activities on the west side of Aurora near the Department of Licensing.
