A significant road construction project will close a section of 48th Avenue in Yakima from April 4 to April 22, 2022, impacting traffic flow during this period. The closure will occur between Castleview Drive and West Viola Avenue as crews work to remove, widen, and replace the roadway. This initiative is part of the city's ongoing commitment to improving infrastructure, which is crucial for accommodating increasing traffic and ensuring public safety. Local access will be maintained for emergency vehicles and residents to minimize disruption during the construction. The project is expected to enhance overall traffic management and safety in the area, reflecting the city's dedication to community development.

Residents are advised to seek alternate routes to avoid delays and ensure smooth travel during the construction phase.
