Asignal removal and replacement will occur at the Francis/Freya intersection
Monday, March 17 with construction continuing for approximately one
month. Flagging at the intersection will occur between 9 a.m. and 3
p.m. The dedicated right turn lane will be closed for southbound
traffic on Freya Street in order to construct the new roadway at the
northwest corner. All traffic movements will still be
allowed. The right turn onto westbound Francis Avenue will be
routed from the through lane. Additional traffic congestion is
anticipated. This traffic configuration will remain in place for
approximately 1 month or until HMA paving is completed at this location. Traffic
is encouraged to find alternate routes. PCMS boards are running to alert
motorists of this upcoming work.
Southbound Lane Closure North Division- The center
southbound lane will be closed on North Division Street on the north side of
the Francis Avenue intersection 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Wednesday, March 12 – 13 to
allow for maintenance and repairs to the Photo Red System.

routes/Sweeping- Be alert for
slow moving sweeping operations on most highway routes, especially in the
Spokane metro area. Sweepers and/or water flushing trucks followed by
warning vehicles will be moving slowly along highway shoulders. On multi-lane
freeways and divided highways, sweeping may be taking place on the inside
shoulder along the left lane.
Intersection Improvements- Road work activities resume Monday March 17th. The temporary
traffic signal at the Francis/Freya intersection will be complete and activated. During this transition work crews will be flagging
traffic at the intersection between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. Drivers with
time-sensitive travel may wish to find alternate routes to their destinations
during this work. In addition, the contractor will need to close the
dedicated right turn lane for southbound traffic on Freya Street in order to
construct the new roadway at the northwest corner. All traffic movements
will still be allowed, but the right turn onto westbound Francis Avenue will
need to be done from the through lane so some additional traffic congestion is
anticipated. This traffic configuration will remain in place for
approximately 1 month, and will be restored once the asphalt paving is
completed at this location.
