2-Day Closure On Main Renton Road Begins Tuesday

The lane closure begins Tuesday at 7 a.m. west of the downtown Renton area.

RENTON, WA — Renton city officials are warning drivers to watch for delays this week along Oakesdale Avenue. A pavement repair project kicks off Tuesday morning and will last until Thursday afternoon.

The northbound curb lane of Oakesdale at Southwest 7th Street will close beginning at 7 a.m. Tuesday and will stay closed until 3:30 p.m. Thursday. Renton road crews are repairing the concrete in the area, and the long delay is so the surface can dry properly.

The lane closure is just south of the Black River Riparian Forest and north of Grady Way.
