Concrete work continues

As part of this project, crews will continue completing sidewalk, driveway, and street upgrades which includes pouring and curing concrete. All concrete work is weather dependent, and the schedule subject to change if there is cold or wet weather in the forecast.

Access in and out of driveways will be maintained to the extent possible. If driveways need to be closed for upgrades, our team will notify individual properties in advance.

We appreciate your patience as crews work toward completing this project.


We understand that the 196th St Improvement Project is impactful on the surrounding neighbors and traffic. Major roadway work for this project is expected to be finished in late 2023.

Our crews are working to complete upgrades as efficiently and effectively as possible. We will continue shifting travel lanes around work zones to allow us to maintain the safety of the crews and traveling public. 

Please follow all pedestrian and traffic control.
