Beginning Wednesday, Aug. 26, the City of Twin Falls will reduce Addison Avenue East to one eastbound lane so that crews can replace a deteriorating waterline.
During the waterline replacement, both eastbound lanes will be closed, and eastbound traffic will be diverted to the center refuge lane. Both westbound lanes will remain open.
Drivers are asked to avoid the project area if possible. Vehicle traffic should reduce speed, follow all posted traffic controls, and yield to construction vehicles and personnel.
Drivers are also reminded that as of July 1, Idaho state law requires that all cell phones and electronic devices be in hands-free mode while driving – even while stopped at traffic signals. The new state law is intended to reduce the number of distracted driving incidents in Idaho.
