ROAD WORK ALERT: SW Roxbury, 15th SW and 16th SW delays expected Wednesday night

| West Seattle news | West Seattle traffic alerts | White Center

Late summer is busy for road crews, trying to get work done before fall arrives. We’ve been including reminders in our daily traffic etc. roundups about White Center road work toward the end of this week. There’s more, according to this alert today from King County Road Services:

Overnight Lane Restrictions:

SW Roxbury St between 26th Ave SW & 15th Ave SW and 15th/16th Ave from Roxbury to SW 110th St

8/13 – White Center

Crews will reduce traffic to a single lane throughout the project limits on SW Roxbury St between 26th Ave SW and 15th Ave SW and on 15th/16th Ave from Roxbury to SW 110th St for crosswalk striping.

Work will take place overnight on Wed. Aug. 13, from 8 p.m. to 2:30 a.m. on Thurs. Aug. 14. Striping is a moving operation – flaggers will direct traffic. Expect delays.

This is related to the ongoing curb-ramp work that county crews have been doing in the same area.

I love that White Center curbs are finally getting some TLC. Would love to see 15th paved before they re-stripe, but some work is better than no work at all, I suppose.

I’m surprised how bad the road condition of 15th is around Sea Mar and Popeye’s. It’s in need of a serious repaving and agree with your assessment.

  15th from Roxbury to 107th needs the same treatment Delridge got when they put in the RapidRide. We’ve already forgotten how terrible Delridge was before. It’s such a heavily-used road already, and the more frequent transit is not doing it any favors.

I agree, why isn’t 15th Ave from Roxbury to 107th being repaved. That is the worst stretch of road i’ve seen around . I’ve hit potholes there numerous times during the rainy season.
