Construction of a median along Northeast 78th Street between Northeast 30th and Northeast 39th avenues will begin this week, causing delays and lane closures.

The median construction follows installation of the traffic signal at Northeast 39th Avenue, near Luke Jensen Sports Park. The median will improve safety of the roadway at a location that has been the site of several serious injuries and fatal collisions, according to a news release from Clark County Public Works.

Crews will also restripe the road surface. Construction is expected to last 45 working days, weather dependent. Access to local businesses will remain open.

Schedule updates and additional information is available at clark.wa.gov/public-works/northeast-78th-street.
