Due to improvements in the weekend weather forecast, city crews will work Saturday, Oct. 13 to restore N 80th Street between Linden Avenue N and Burke Avenue N to its original configuration. Temporary traffic and parking changes on N 80th Street have been in effect to assist with eastbound detour traffic from N 85th Street.

Work is scheduled to occur on Saturday from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. and will cause short-term traffic impacts and delays in this area. If heavy rains occur, some work will be postponed until the following weekend (Oct. 20).

While major construction activities on N/NW 85th Street are mostly complete, active construction will continue through the end of October with some minor work activities continuing into the fall.
