Sheyenne Street Segment 3 Project Limit Residential Access Changes Begin Wednesday

 

Beginning midmorning Wednesday, July 17, local access will change for the two neighborhood areas east of Sheyenne Street in the Segment 3 project limits (32nd Avenue W. to 40th Avenue W.). Sheyenne Street, between the intersections of 37th Avenue E. and Golden Spike Drive, will close to all traffic to begin roadway removals and continue underground work in this next section. The intersection of 38th Avenue E. will reopen for use and the 32nd Avenue W. intersection will continue to be used to maintain local access. Previously all local access was maintained at 32nd Avenue W. And Sheyenne Street intersection.

Crews are currently working on the last asphalt pave and installing traffic control through the 38th Avenue E. intersection. When the traffic shift occurs, to reach the east side Sheyenne Street neighborhoods:

  • SOUTH ACCESS: Traffic will shift from using 37th Avenue E. to access the neighborhood to using the south entrance at 38th Avenue E.
    • Motorists will travel to the posted detour route on Ninth Street to head north to 32nd Avenue W. or south to 40th Avenue W. 
  • NORTH ACCESSS: The north neighborhoods will continue to use 32nd Avenue W. and Sheyenne Street intersection to travel south for access. Residents will have the north entrance open at Horseshoe Circle to access the entire residential area around the loop.
    • After a few weeks of work in this area, residential access will shift from 32nd Avenue W. to use of 34th Avenue W. to travel in and out of the neighborhood.

Motorists should plan for delays and congestion during the morning and evening commutes and adjust their travel plans accordingly throughout the Sheyenne Street corridor.

As work progresses through the Sheyenne Street corridor, drivers are encouraged to eliminate distractions and slow down as work zone configurations may frequently shift.
