Construction Update
June 13, 2014

Utility Work

Excavation work will continue during daytime hours (7am to 3:30pm) for utility work on the west side of Aurora. While most of the new water main installation has been completed, additional utility work includes power, lighting, and communications.

Access to Firlands Way N from Aurora remains closed for utility installation. During this work, Firlands Way N will have a 24-hour closure; however, local access will be maintained for residents at Firlands Way Condos. 

N 195th Street between Firlands Way N and Aurora will be closed intermittently. Access will be maintained for all residents in this area. Temporary traffic and pedestrian detours will be in place around the work area and flaggers will be on site to assist with traffic control. Parking on Firlands Way N will continue to be restricted. 

Roadway Work

Roadway excavation work for the new southbound bus lane has been in progress. Storm drain work will also occur on Aurora, resulting in trenching and installation of new manholes or inlets. Southbound Aurora may be restricted to one lane during the daytime non-commute hours to perform any of the work above. 

Trucks will be entering and leaving the roadway in the work zones. Drivers should drive carefully through the construction project. Pedestrians are encouraged to stay clear of work zones by following the signs and footprints on the ground around the work areas.
