The construction of a median is a requirement following the installation of the traffic signal at Northeast 39th Avenue, near Luke Jensen Sports Park
VANCOUVER – Construction will begin towards the end of August to install a median along Northeast 78th Street between Northeast 30th and Northeast 39th avenues. The construction of a median is a requirement following the installation of the traffic signal at Northeast 39th Avenue, near Luke Jensen Sports Park. The median will improve the safety of the roadway and help prevent collisions.
Travelers in the area can expect occasional lane closures, traffic impacts and delays. Access to local businesses will remain open. Construction is scheduled for 45 working days and is weather-dependent. Schedule updates and additional information is available at clark.wa.gov/public-works/northeast-78th-street.
