Final Striping on GW Way Set to Impact Traffic Dec. 8–12

It's hard to imagine that road construction is still going on during the winter months in the Tri-Cities, but we've got some road updates on detours and delays that you should know about for next week.

• Periodic lane closures on George Washington Way may occur as needed to complete striping and marking operations.

Motorists are encouraged to slow down, follow posted signage, and remain alert for workers and changing traffic patterns as the project wraps up.

For those living in Richland, this construction is going to be a welcome relief and the winding down of a long-term project for the City of Richland.
