Traffic issues this week

There will be a few new road and lane closures this week in Spokane Valley, mostly for utility work. There is a series of projects that will slow traffic between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m. today through Friday. The affected roads are Van Marter from Montgomery Drive onto Marietta, Montgomery from Van Marter to University, University from Montgomery to Grace and Grace between University and Bowdish.

While I was out and about this morning I also noticed that the northbound curb lane on Evergreen in closed between Desmet and Mission. I’m not sure how long that will last, but there was a deep hole dug in the road.
