Aurora construction weekly updates - two projects on Aurora

N 165th - N 185th Streets (Marshbank Construction)

This week, crews will:

• Continue final paving activities at night on Aurora, N 175th Street, N 185th Street and behind driveways at some businesses. Single lane closures on these streets are expected. Left and U-turn pockets are also scheduled to be paved; please pay attention to posted signage and do not use turn pockets if they are not open to traffic. Turn pockets will be opened as soon as possible.
• Continue crosswalk construction on Aurora at N 185th Street and N 175th Street and prepare for crosswalk construction at N 180th and N 170th Street. Pedestrian access at these locations is expected to be closed at night and partially or fully closed during the day. Please pay attention to flaggers and pedestrian detour notices.
• Install street light poles along Aurora. Intermittent single lane closures are expected.
• Continue converting electrical, phone and communications services to new underground systems and removing old overhead lines and poles.
• Continue landscaping along Aurora and adjusting stormwater grates and other features to ensure a smooth transition to the new pavement. 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.
• Continue pouring curbs and sidewalks on the west side of Aurora and on N 192nd Street west of Aurora. This work is weather dependant and will take several weeks to complete.
• Continue construction activities near the Shoreline Park & Ride, including construction of the new Rain Garden Plaza . Work near the park and ride lot will continue through early 2012.
