Southbound 305 to experience nighttime closures

For the next month, the right lane of State Route-305 southbound at the intersection of Winslow Way will be closed between the hours of 8 p.m. and 5 a.m. for utility repairs, according to the Washington State Department of Transportation.

The work, slated to begin tonight and run through Dec. 2, will result in the installation of utilities for a city project, WSDOT said. Flaggers will guide the traffic near Winslow Way to one lane during the closure period. WSDOT said the construction is being undertaken at night to avoid impacting commuter traffic.

The project will be done on weeknights and is weather-dependent.
