Pioneer Widening Project Update: September 5, 2024

Construction of the Pioneer Widening project is continuing on schedule.

UPDATES & REMINDERS

- The road segment connecting Pioneer Street to the new segment of Pioneer Canyon Drive has been renamed from “50th Place” to “N Discovery Drive.” The new roundabout built in Phase 4 will be at Pioneer Street and Discovery Drive.

- UPDATE 9/6/2024: This closure has been cancelled. For up to date traffic alerts, visit https://ridgefieldwa.us/220/Road-Construction-Traffic-Impacts. Pioneer Street between 47th Avenue and 53rd Place will close from 8 PM on Friday, September 13, to 6 AM on Monday, September 16. A detour will be in place—details are on our Traffic Alerts Page.

- The temporary traffic signal at 53rd Place and Pioneer Street will remain until the Phase 1 connection (N Discovery Drive and Pioneer Canyon Drive) is open and the contractor completes the Phase 2 work at 53rd Place and Pioneer Street. After that, the 53rd and Pioneer intersection will become a permanent right-in/right-out intersection with no left turns.

- There is a 30 mph construction advisory speed in place through the project area. Construction speed signs are being installed. Lane shifts will be used to minimize closures. Please drive cautiously and follow all signs and flaggers in the construction zone.
