Beginning the week of April 20, Secon and the DOT&PF will open an additional work zone between Willoughby Avenue and the Downtown Capital Transit Center. This work will require single lane shifts, alternative pedestrian routes, and flaggers at times.

• Both inbound and outbound lanes on Egan between the Four Points Sheraton and the Seadrome Building will be open at night.
• Traffic controls will remain in place from 10th Street to Main Street, restricting left-turns on-to or off-of Egan Drive.

Secon and the DOT&PF will begin implementing traffic restrictions on Monday, April 6, for the Egan Drive Project by shutting down operation of the Whittier Street traffic signal.  Please note this work is weather dependent and may be delayed.

• Initially the Whitter signal will be in “flashing mode” indicating motorists traveling inbound and outbound on Egan to use caution, and motorists on Whittier to stop and then proceed with caution through the intersection.
• Once traffic control devices are in place, the signal will be non-operational through September.  
•  Traffic controls will be in place on Egan Drive between 12th Street and Willoughby Avenue reducing traffic lanes to one lane in each direction.
• Left turns will be restricted on-to or off-of Egan Drive after 10th Street to Willoughby Avenue to ensure the best possible flow of traffic through the work zone.
• Pedestrian access will be maintained on the mountainside of Egan.

 
Additional traffic restrictions will be implemented soon to restrict left turns after 10th Street to Ferry Way; updates regarding those changes will be provided as soon as possible.

The Egan Drive Project is shutting down for the winter season.  

SECON & the DOT&PF would like to thank the community for your patience and cooperation this construction season.
  
Some non-ground disturbing work will continue in November and December, which may require minor traffic revisions. Public updates will be provided as often as possible during those times.
 
Regular construction activities will resume in the Spring of 2020.
Happy Holidays from SECON and the DOT&PF!
 

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.
