6/13/19 Project Update

Beginning Sunday, June 16th Secon and the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities (DOT&PF) will shut down operation of the Whittier Street and Egan Drive intersection traffic signal.  This work is weather dependent.

• Initially the signal will be in “flashing mode” indicating the intersection is temporarily a four-way stop. This will continue for approximately six hours until traffic control devices are in place.
• Once traffic control devices are in place, the signal will be non-operational.
• Left turns will not be allowed on-to or off-of Whittier Street.  
• Traffic controls will be in place on Egan Drive between Seward Street and Aurora Harbor reducing traffic lanes to one lane in each direction
• Left turns will be restricted on-to or off-of Egan Drive between Main Street and 10th Street – not including the Douglas Bridge intersection – to ensure the best possible flow of traffic through the work zone.
• Pedestrian access will be maintained on one side of Egan Drive or the other. Watch for pedestrian detour signs. ​

 
The safety of the traveling public and our workers is our main concern.  
Please watch for flaggers, follow designated traffic revisions and posted detours.
