Median Crossing to Close at Cedar and 155th

New road work slated for this week:

• The median at Cedar and 155th is scheduled to close Monday until sometime in November. Drivers traveling in either direction on Cedar won't be able to turn left onto 155th/Whitney Drive during that time.

• The traffic signals at Cedar and 160th will be flashing red, signifying an all-way stop, from 9 a.m. to noon on Monday.

• Temporary lane and sidewalk closures are possible along Cedar between 138th and 150th streets as private utility companies set up for next year's construction.

Existing road and lane closures that will continue:

• Closure of sidewalks along both sides of Cedar from 147th to 157th streets. These began July 25.

• Closure of northbound and southbound lanes of Cedar between 147th Street in Apple Valley and Dodd Boulevard.

• Closure of the northbound and southbound Apple Valley transit stations at 155th Street West and Cedar, for utility work. Buses will pick up and drop off at the old transit station on Gaslight Lane during this time. Riders still are advised to park in the ramp near the newer stations and walk to the old station. The stations closure is slated to continue through October.

• For several weeks beginning in mid-September, only one lane of westbound 160th Street West will be open between Garrett Path and Granada Avenue. Only one lane will be open on eastbound 160th between Granada and Cedar, as well. Right turn lanes will be closed, but cars will still be able to turn right from the thru lanes.
