10/17/2019 Project Update

Over the weekend, the right-turn pocket onto the Douglas Bridge in front of Juneau Electronics and the Marine Exchange will be closed. Right-turns on-to the Bridge will be allowed via the straight-through lane on inbound Egan. Larger vehicles needing to take right-turns on-to the Bridge should detour around the work zone and access the Bridge via the straight-through lane on 10th Street. Normal bridge access will resume by Monday, October 21st. 
All other traffic controls will remain in place between West 12th Street and the Ramada Inn:

• Traffic controls will be in place on Egan between West 12th Street and the Ramada Inn, shifting inbound and outbound traffic to the mountainside lanes on Egan, and reducing traffic lanes to one lane in each direction.
• Inbound traffic will remain shifted to the outbound fast lane of Egan Drive.
  
• Outbound traffic will remain shifted to the outbound slow lane of Egan Drive.
  
• Left-turns on-to 12th Street and 10th Street on inbound Egan will be open.
  
• Left-turns on-to and off-of the Douglas Bridge will be open.
  
• Access to 8th Street and 9th Street, near the Department of Labor, Cycle Alaska, and the Juneau Hotel, will remain open.
  
• Left-turns on-to and off-of Egan will be restricted at 8th and 9th streets and Glacier Avenue.
  
• Motorists needing to access outbound Egan from 8th and 9th streets must take a right turn onto inbound Egan and travel to Whittier Street to take a left turn and continue to the signalized 10th Street and Egan intersection. Alternatively, motorists may continue on inbound Egan to the traffic circle near the Downtown Public Library to make a permitted U-turn onto outbound Egan.
  
• During this time, there will also be pedestrian closures on the waterside of the 10th Street and Douglas Bridge intersection and a pedestrian detour under the Douglas Bridge. Access to all businesses and the Whale Park will be maintained during construction. ​

The safety of the traveling public and our workers is our main concern. 
Please follow designated traffic revisions, posted pedestrian routes,
and never enter a work zone.
