Reminder to use the temporary loop ramp from southbound 7th Ave. to eastbound Hwy 10
As a reminder, drivers on southbound 7th Ave. who are traveling to eastbound Hwy 10 should use the temporary loop ramp. Using the loop ramp will help keep traffic from getting backed up on 7th Ave. Southbound 7th Ave. drivers need to get in the right lane to use the temporary loop ramp. The left-turn lane for the existing eastbound Hwy 10 entrance ramp is closed.
All construction activities and traffic impacts are weather permitting and subject to change.
More about this project
