The D Street Gate on JBLM Lewis North The contractor striped this week and should be finished by publication day. The next East Drive project plans repairs starting at the end of the D-Street widening to DuPont/Steilacoom Road requiring road closure, likely in July.

The McChord Field Woodbrook Housing Gate has reopened. Operating hours will be extended during McChord Field Main Gate construction. The gate will be open 5 a.m.to 7 p.m., seven days a week through May 2.

The McChord Field North Gate will operate extended hours, 5 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Friday, except weekends and federal holidays. The extended operating hours will continue through May 2, to accommodate construction at the McChord Field Main Gate.

A traffic circle is being installed at the intersection of A Street and 17th Street on Lewis North, to be finished April 25. However, light poles will not be delivered until late May. Traffic barrels with lights will mark the roundabout. There will be intermittent traffic delays when the poles are installed, which should take a day.

Drivers using Jackson Avenue near Madigan Army Medical Center should expect delays for a few months as contractors begin repairing a one-mile stretch of road from the barricades near the Madigan Gate to Transmission Line Road. The project consists of two phases: the first phase involves repairing cracks and potholes, and the second phase places an overlay on the road during the night finishes in August. Paving should be completed on 41st Division Road by today and work on Jackson starts next week.

"We will do the overlay at night to have less of an impact on traffic," said Directorate of Public Works Project Manager Matt Weeks. Incoming and outgoing traffic will be reduced to one lane at certain times during the project.

More information about traffic revision updates and construction changes will come as the contractor announces them. For road conditions, call 967-1733.
