Heads up Parkland!! Know before you go!!
Ainsworth Avenue South will be closed between Garfield Street South and Tule Lake Road South beginning Wednesday, June 17. The road closure is expected to last for approximately two weeks.
Ainsworth Avenue South will also be closed to through traffic between 116th Street South and Garfield Street South. Access will remain available at all times for residents and emergency vehicles. Through traffic should detour along 116th Street South, Spanaway Loop Road South, and Tule Lake Road South.
This road closure is the first part of the Parkland/Brookdale Interceptor Phase 5 sewer project. The closure is scheduled to begin after the last day of school for Franklin Pierce School District.
After the road is reopened, construction will continue this summer and fall through easements on Franklin Pierce School District and Pacific Lutheran University properties. That work will not impact the traveling public. Construction on Keithley Middle School and Washington High School grounds is scheduled to be completed before school begins in the fall.
