  • The left thru lane on southbound Cedar beginning at 153rd Street West will be closed during non-rush hour on Monday, to work on traffic signals.
  • The traffic signals at 157th Street West and Cedar will flash red during non-rush hours on Monday as crews work to remove the signal system.
  • Beginning Monday and lasting several weeks, 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.

Existing road and lane closures that will continue are:
