Work continues on installation of a new signalized crosswalk on Highway 104 next to Edmonds City Park. There will be some lane closures and delays weekdays and weeknights through Oct. 24. Work will then be put on hold until Jan. 5, when the signal itself is installed.
Some of the work will be noisy — drilling, saw-cutting, jack hammering. Residents who live in the area and are bothered by the noise can call 206-440-4368 to request ear plugs.
Yep, that’s actually a thing.
Special flyers go out to people living in the area when a WSDOT project is going to get loud. The distance flyers go out depends on the municipality where work is being done, said Tom Pearce, a spokesman for the state Department of Transportation. But regardless of whether you got the flyer, if you’re close enough to be bothered by the noise you can call the number.
