State Route 203 will undergo a single-lane closure near Northeast Carnation Farm Road starting September 26, 2024, for four consecutive weekdays. The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) has announced that the closure is essential for the installation of fencing, a project aimed at enhancing safety for both vehicles and pedestrians in the area. As a result of this construction, travelers can expect delays and are advised to consider alternative routes during the daytime hours when the lane reduction will be in effect. This initiative reflects the ongoing commitment of local authorities to improve transportation infrastructure and ensure the safety of road users. WSDOT will provide updates to keep the community informed about the progress and any changes to the schedule.

Local residents are encouraged to remain vigilant and plan their travel accordingly during this period. The project is expected to contribute positively to the area’s traffic management and safety measures. Citizens are reminded to drive cautiously in the work zone to ensure the safety of construction workers and other motorists.
