Road Work Along Cedar Avenue: Sept. 19-25
Parts of Cedar and surrounding roads will be closed overnight on a handful of nights.

New road work and closures slated for Cedar Avenue this week:
- Cedar will be closed from 147th to 150th streets from 9 p.m. Tuesday to 5 a.m. Wednesday AND from 9 p.m. Thursday to 5 a.m. Friday.
- 150th Street between Cedar and Pennock Lane from 10 p.m. Friday to 7 a.m. Saturday.
Existing road and lane closures that will continue are:
- 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.
- traffic cannot cross Cedar or turn left in Lakeville at 162nd, 167th or Upper 167th streets.
- 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.
