— from Shannon Wilbur for San Juan County Public Works —

Two lanes will be open for traffic on Orcas Road and Nordstroms Lane from Friday through Sunday. Please drive cautiously on the gravel roads.

Starting on Monday, Nordstroms Lane will be closed again to all traffic except for EMS and residents. This will last for a few days while the new Nordstroms Lane is completed. The detour north of McNallie Road will be in place again for a few days while the final clearing and brushing takes place. Beginning mid-next week, the crews will move over to the Swan Road intersection to begin work.

On Monday, traffic control lights will once again be operational when only one lane is available for traffic. The current wait time is up to 6 minutes.

Work hours are 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. The speed limit in the construction zone is 25 mph at all times.
