THE FINAL PHASE IV


 What's happening...   


BLID Update for Sept.  18

 3-week look ahead 

BLID ...Nearing completion…

Crews will be working on:

• Installing street lights along St. Helens next week
• Miscellaneous sidewalk and curb patches along Broadway 2nd to 4th
• Finishing touches (punch list work) for phase I, II and III along Market and Broadway
• Miscellaneous concrete repair work
• Drum roll…. Landscaping is tentatively scheduled for mid-October

 Good to know!

• Explanation for back-in parking: Angled, back-in parking was designed to prevent cars who are parked in an area on a hill from rolling out into traffic - if they do not set their parking brake. Cars will not be able to roll out into the lane of traffic, but instead roll into the curb.  If the parking was designed the other way - the cars would be facing down hill to the south, and could roll out of the parking stall if the parking brake was not set.
• 3 Variable Message Boards have been set up to notify the public that businesses remain open while construction is underway.
• Access to Opera Alley will be maintained
  

 Broadway Local Improvement District: Needs Your Help!
Although construction is inconvenient, please make every effort to continue patronizing those businesses within the Broadway LID. Whether you grab a tasty salad from Margaret's, a warm pizza from PSP, or some mac and cheese from Over the Moon... your business makes a difference and will help these locally-owned and operated places stay open for everyone to enjoy!


Please note: The work is weather dependent and schedules are subject to change.

 ADA Stalls
As a result of the handicap stalls that were removed on Market due to construction, the City has relocated the stalls to the West side of St. Helens. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience the removal caused and will make every effort as the project moves forward to ensure access to these parking stalls are maintained.

 St. Helens Avenue has been redirected to one-way southbound
St. Helens Avenue has been  redirected to one-way southbound into downtown Tacoma. This is the first step to making St. Helens one-way indefinitely. This traffic flow redirect is necessary for work to continue on schedule with the BLID project.
