~ Spokane, WA - As the summer season approaches, the City of Spokane is gearing up for multiple construction projects that will impact travel in high-traffic areas. The city is urging motorists to plan ahead and allow for extra time as they navigate through these obstructions.
According to Kirstin Davis, Communications Manager for the City of Spokane, travelers can expect significant travel impacts starting Tuesday, May 28 due to several regional construction projects involving the City of Spokane, Spokane County, and Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT).
One of the major closures will be on Wellesley Ave. between Market St. and Freya St., which will be closed from May 28 to June 28. This closure is due to a project by WSDOT contractor crews who will also be closing northbound lanes on the North Spokane Corridor between Wellesley Ave. interchange and Freya St. interchange.

Motorists are advised to slow down for everyone's safety and make an extra effort to support businesses impacted by these necessary projects. The City has provided current obstruction information on their construction webpage.
Drivers can expect travel obstructions on east and west Bigelow Gulch Rd., Upriver Dr., and Wellesley Ave. during this time. Southbound lanes on the North Spokane Corridor will also be closed between the Freya St. interchange and Wellesley St. interchange, with southbound drivers being directed to exit at Francis Ave. and northbound drivers at Wellesley Ave.
In order to help alleviate traffic congestion during this time, alternate routes have been suggested by the city. Westbound drivers can take Argonne Rd., west on Upriver Dr., north on Freya St., west on Euclid Ave., or westbound Trent Ave. or Sprague Ave., or I-90 to Hamilton St. exit.
Eastbound drivers can take Market St. to east Euclid Ave., south on Freya St., east on Upriver Dr. to Argonne Rd., or eastbound Trent Ave. or Sprague Ave., or I-90 to Argonne Rd. exit.

Another major closure will be on Washington St. between North River Dr. and Spokane Falls Blvd., starting Monday, June 3. This closure is due to work being done on the Washington Street Bridge to replace expansion joints and deck overlay.
During this time, all southbound lanes will be closed and northbound traffic will be reduced to one lane. Drivers traveling south on Washington St. will be detoured at W. North River Dr., while those traveling north can expect back-ups with only one lane of traffic available between Spokane Falls Blvd. and Boone Ave.
The city has provided alternate routes for drivers, encouraging them to use Division St., Monroe St., and Ash St. for southbound travel into downtown from north Spokane.
For more information and detailed maps of the closures and detours, drivers can refer to the related documents provided by the City of Spokane.
As these construction projects continue throughout the summer, the City of Spokane reminds motorists to plan ahead, allow for extra time, and drive safely in order to minimize any inconvenience caused by these necessary projects.
