The City of Edmonds is proud to announce that it will be paving area streets for a 7th consecutive summer!

The 2020 program will pave approximately 4 lane-miles of streets within the City of Edmonds using a combination of utility and roadway funds.  Many of this year's streets wlll be treated with kevlar fiber reinforcing. This treatment is intentended to extend the life of the roadway by preventing cracking.

Be sure to check back for updates or keep an eye on the City of Edmonds - Community and Government Facebook page!

WHAT TO EXPECT ON GRIND DAY: The contractor's grinding operation tends to move at a good pace and the road can be driven on immediately after grinding. You may be blocked out of your driveway or your small side street for durations of 10 to 20 minutes. 

WHAT TO EXPECT ON PAVE DAY: If you have anywhere important to be on pave day you should leave early or park your car on a neighboring street. You may be blocked out of your driveway for anywhere from 3 to 6 hours and it's impossible to predict what time that will start or end.   

MOTORIST ALERT: Expect delays for lane shifts and traffic control operations during work hours (7AM-5PM).  For the safety of construction workers, the traveling public, and pedestrians, please use caution when driving through construction zones.
