………………………………………………
Please note that our lane closure times have changed with the start of the non-peak season on October 1, 2014. In an effort to continue to progress the project towards our completion date in the Summer of 2016, the Project Management Team has reviewed historical traffic volumes provided in the Route 26 Mainline Project Transportation Management Plan for the last week of September. This review of available traffic volume data indicates that there would be no significant impacts to traffic over and above the impacts that would occur after October 1, 2014 if day time lane closures were permitted on Monday, September 29th and Tuesday, September 30th. We have concluded that it will be in the best interest of the project, road users and the community to begin daytime lane closures on Monday, September 29, 2014, two days earlier than the start of daytime lane closure outlined in the contract documents.
The longest wait times to travel through the work zone occur between 09:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. after the initial closure of the travel lane to move equipment and personnel into the work zone. Longer wait times along the Route 26 corridor may also occur from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Travel times to and from your destination may be quicker if you use one of the Route 26 Alternate Routes that were constructed prior to the start of the Route 26 Mainline Construction Project. The recently reconstructed roadways include:
