Road and sidewalk closures: West Armory Way and West Wheeler Street

Over the last few months, crews have been working near West Armory Way to prepare for construction on a new odor control facility. Crews have also started work on the above-ground temporary bypass pipe. As work progresses, ongoing and upcoming closures are necessary to accommodate crews and construction vehicles within the work zone.

The public should expect the following closures:

  • The cul-de-sac near the end of West Armory Way is expected to remain closed until July 2025. An extended portion of this street, as well as a sidewalk, will also be closed as early as the end of October. See map below for details. 
  • An undeveloped portion of West Wheeler Street will be closed as early as next week and will remain closed until the end of 2027.
