The schedule for closing the southbound lanes on First Avenue
South between South King Street and Railroad Way has changed. The lanes
will now be closed on Monday through Wednesday, August 17-19, and
possibly also Thursday, August 20, if needed, from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. The
sidewalk on the western side of First Avenue South will also be closed.

A detour will be provided to South King Street and then to Railroad Way,
back to First Avenue South. (Please note that Railroad Way is divided by
a median, so traffic turning left from King Street to head south on
Railroad Way must stay to the right of the median.)

The closure is needed for the operation of a large crane working on a private
building.
