Starting next week, crews will be installing new traffic loops at the intersection of Highway 7 and Jane Street, and closing one eastbound lane between Commerce and Jane for storm sewer maintenance work. Please see below for details on the work and temporary lane closures:

work dates*: Monday, March 14 to Friday, March 25
work hours: 9:30am–3:30pm

• Crews will be closing one eastbound lane on Highway 7 from Commerce to Jane for storm sewer maintenance work.
• In addition, crews will be installing traffic loops around the Highway 7 and Jane intersection.
• Traffic loops are sensors that detect vehicles queued at an intersection. They are used to adjust the intersection cycle times.
• Crews will work on one lane at a time over the next few days. There will be temporary lane closures near each work area as the crews work their way around these intersections.
• Please give yourself enough time to get to your destination, and remember to reduce your speed through construction zones.
• Due to the nature of this work, there will be noise around the work area at times.

*Please note: As with other road construction projects, some work may be rescheduled due to weather. We’ll provide advance notice whenever possible.

Thank you for your patience as we transform Highway 7. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact your Community Liaisons.
