City of Kennewick - 2021 City-Wide Asphalt Overlay Project

The 2021 City-Wide Overlay project has started with an estimated completion in late August. Project includes removal and replacement of a significant number of pedestrian ramps at street intersections.
 
The contractor will be removing and replacing the existing pavement surface on the following streets:

• W. 27th Ave – S. Ely St. to US-395
• W. 27th Ave – US-395 to Roundabout at Southridge Blvd.
• Southridge Blvd. – Roundabout at W. 27th Ave to Hildebrand Blvd.
• Hildebrand Blvd. – Southridge Blvd. to S. Dawes St.

 
Project will require multiple lane closures on weekdays between the hours of 8:00am and 4:30pm. The planing (grinding) and paving phase is scheduled for late July and will take place at night between the hours of 8:00pm and 6:00am. Access to driveways and side streets will be maintained with only temporary impacts.
 
For their safety and the safety of the project workers, we ask that drivers exercise caution and patience and that pedestrians follow the posted detours.
 
The City’s Current Projects web page will be updated weekly with relevant information during construction.
