Construction is underway for the U.S. 20 at Locust Street Project.
Starting the week of March 4th, travelers can expect N. Locust Street to be closed at U.S.20. Traffic will be detoured to N. Larch Street and Main Street. Cascade Avenue will remain open during construction. N. Locust Street will be closed through the end of May.
Work on the southern leg of the roundabout is expected to begin in June, with closures of S. Locust Street and Hood Avenue planned in June and July. Jefferson Avenue will also be closed mid-summer as additional improvements are constructed at its intersection with U.S. 20.
