Edmonds, WA, is set to close the intersection of Maple Street and 7th Avenue from January 11 to January 19, 2022, to facilitate crucial construction work involving the installation of new storm pipes and structures. The closure will occur from 7 AM to 5 PM on weekdays, with vehicle traffic prohibited during these hours, though driveway access will be preserved. Sidewalks will remain open, and pedestrian detours will be implemented to ensure safety. The city has emphasized that the construction timeline is dependent on weather conditions, with updates to be provided as necessary. This initiative is part of the City's annual replacement program, which focuses on upgrading storm lines that have reached the end of their useful life or are inadequate.

Residents are encouraged to reach out to Greg Malowicki for further inquiries or to request free language assistance services. The city aims to keep the community informed about any changes to the construction schedule. Overall, this project reflects Edmonds' commitment to improving local infrastructure and stormwater management.
