Building a Better
Boones Ferry Road
You’re seeing a transformation
Boones Ferry Road from Madrona Street to Lanewood Street is
undergoing a transformation.
A vibrant, welcoming commercial district enriches life, both for
neighbors who live here and businesses that serve them. The new
Boones Ferry Road has been designed to:
• Improve safety and efficiency for
people walking, biking and driving
• Make business access safer and easier
• Improve roadway drainage and
sidewalk connections
• Create an attractive,
interesting streetscape.
Madrona Street to Bryant Road is the first of three major
work zones along Boones Ferry Road with a temporary lane
reduction expected to last through early next year. Crews are
working on the west side of the street first, then the east side,
then the middle. Lane reductions are also in place on Bryant and
Firwood Roads.
As you travel a little slower through the area, you are seeing
underground utility lines being moved, concrete flatwork
for sidewalk curb areas, construction of retaining walls,
installation of irrigation for future landscaping, street
grading, base paving, and temporary traffic signage. Please
remember, you are traveling through an active work zone. Be
cautious and plan extra travel time.
Instead of four lanes through the work zone, there are three: one
in each direction plus a center turn lane. That gives crews room
to maneuver and still keeps the road open, with flaggers and
brief delays at times. When work starts on the median, there will
only be two travel lanes.Construction hours
