The intersection at N 80th St and Greenwood Ave N will be closed this weekend from Friday, October 28 at 6 p.m. until Monday, October 31 at 5 a.m. for repaving. The work scheduled for last weekend was canceled due to an unfavorable weather forecast.

The intersection closure will extend on Greenwood Ave N from N 79th Street to N 81st Street, and on N 80th Street from Dayton Ave N to First Ave NW. Drivers should follow signed detours via N 65th Street, 3rd Avenue NW and N 85th Street.

Pedestrian access to businesses and residences will be maintained, and local access to driveways near the intersection will be provided. Stay safe near construction areas by paying attention to posted signs and following the directions of crews.
