Nearby News: Greenwood Ave paving set for this week

SDOT is advising drivers that Greenwood Ave N between N 112th and N 125th streets will be repaved this coming Tuesday and Wednesday nights, September 27 and 28.

The work is a continuation of the repaving project that began in early August which repaves Greenwood Ave N between N 112th and N 136th streets. Motorists are advised to be aware of the rough road surface in the area and to travel safely.

WHAT TO EXPECT:

  • Paving work hours for Tuesday and Wednesday will be 7 p.m. until 6 a.m. the following morning.
  • One travel lane in each direction will be maintained on this section of Greenwood Ave N throughout the paving process.
  • Tuesday night, September 27, the southbound lanes between N 112th and N 125th streets will be paved.
  • Wednesday night, September 28, the northbound lanes between N 112th and N 125th streets will be paved.
  • Motorists will NOT be able to enter or exit driveways for several hours, until the newly laid asphalt has had time to cool.  For motorists who are impacted, please consider parking on side streets if you need to come and go during the affected time period.
  • In some locations, on-street parking adjacent to the paving will be prohibited until the repaved lanes have reopened. (A-frame signs will be placed in these locations in advance of paving to inform impacted motorists.)
  • On Tuesday night, it is estimated that the southbound driveways between N 120th and N 125th streets will be closed from 7 p.m. until midnight, while the southbound driveways between N 112th and N 120th streets will be closed from midnight until 6 a.m. Wednesday morning. These hours are estimates that could change depending on how the paving process progresses.
