*What's happening in Westlake?*

Crews have begun trenching across the parking lot south of Halladay St to install conduit, alongside demo work and the installation of a new pedestrian curb ramp near the Westlake Cycle Track.

Construction work on Crockett St near Westlake Ave is expected to begin as early as next week, with work on 8th Ave and Galer St starting as early as February. We’ll provide further updates as these projects progress.

*What to Expect on Westlake Ave and Halladay St:*


*

*Parking Lot Access:*


* Access will remain available during work hours with occasional temporary closures.
* Crews will work on one half of the lot at a time, plating the other half to maintain access.
* After work hours, the entire lot will be safely plated and accessible.

*

*Construction Timeline:*


* Work in the parking lot is expected to finish by mid-February.
* Crews will return later this year for final electrical installation after inspections.
* Work on Westlake Ave and Halladay St will continue through February 2024, with staging in the parking lot.

*Community Impacts:*


* Noise, dust, and increased vehicle traffic.
* Temporary parking restrictions, driveway closures, and traffic adjustments.
* Night and weekend work to reduce daytime disruption.
* Potential short-term utility service impacts.

Project Benefits

In addition to the 5-10% transit travel time savings, 14-17% in Ballard to Downtown, the Route 40 project will maintain and modernize vital infrastructure

What you can expect during construction

* Temporary lane reductions
* Temporary driveway closures
* Temporary bus stop closures
* Temporary parking restrictions
* Temporary sidewalk detours
* Temporary storage of construction supplies in the street  
* Temporary noise, dust and vibrations
* Bus stop relocations
* Drainage work: This involves digging trenches to help manage water flow
* Signal pole foundation excavation: This work involves digging for the pole foundations prior to when we order custom signal poles which takes a while to build and to make sure we know there are no underground obstructions  
* Trenching for conduit: This involves digging trenches to lay down pipes or cables underground
* Sidewalk curb bulb out: This involves making the curbs stick outward for safety or accessibility
* Mill and fill overlay: This is when the top layer of the road gets removed and replaced with new asphalt

The construction timeline is always subject to change depending on weather conditions and materials availability. We are committed to keeping you informed and maintaining open communication throughout the remainder of this project.To learn more about the project and designs, visit our online open house.  [ https://route40.infocommunity.org/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery ]
