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.
