Update Street Closure Maple Street 7th Ave.

The City of Edmonds is implementing a street closure at the intersection of Maple Street and 7th Avenue from January 11 to January 19, 2022, to accommodate construction for new storm pipes and structures. The closure will occur daily from 7 AM to 5 PM, with vehicle traffic prohibited during these hours; however, access to driveways will be preserved. Pedestrians will have access to sidewalks, with detours established for safe crossings. Notably, the intersection will remain open during evenings and weekends to minimize disruption. This initiative is part of the city's annual storm utility replacement program, which seeks to upgrade aging infrastructure that has reached the end of its service life or is undersized.

Residents can expect updates on the construction schedule, which may change due to weather conditions. For any inquiries, residents are encouraged to contact Greg Malowicki at the provided phone number or email. This project reflects the city's commitment to maintaining and enhancing its infrastructure for community safety and well-being.
