Partial closures of Maloney Grove Avenue in North Bend can be expected this week, as clearing and grading work begins for the Maloney Grove 13 residential development along the road.

Most of the work will require only single-lane closures, but three full road closures, each about six hours, are planned. The road will close between SE 10th Street and SE Cedar Falls Way from about 9:15 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 15, Monday, Feb. 19, and Monday, Feb. 26.

Detour routes will be provided for the public. Local access for residents within the closure area will be available.

The project, by home builder Polygon, will include improvements to the water, sewer and storm drainage systems on the road, as well. During construction, citizens can contact the Public Works office at 425-888- 0486 with questions or concerns. They can also send email to Carrie Smith at csmith@northbendwa.gov, or Brian Tucker at btucker@northbendwa.gov.
