The Contractor is making good progress on building the new lanes north of the Swan Road intersection and traffic will be moved on to them for the weekend. In addition, the stormwater detention ponds on either side of Swan Road are taking shape.
Next week, Orcas Rd north of McNallie will be closed. The detour will be in effect. Note that there will be no construction on Friday, May 24, before the holiday weekend.
