Motorists Are Encouraged to Take Alternate Routes to Avoid Works Zones

 

 

San Francisco, CA – Beginning Monday, April 5, and continuing through Tuesday, April 13, available traffic lanes along 19th Avenue in San Francisco, at the intersections of Noriega Street and at Kirkham Street, will be reduced to accommodate an essential sewer replacement project. Work will take place  7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday-Friday.

 

Crews will work on the southbound lanes first and then move onto northbound lanes, leaving just one lane open instead of the normal three in each direction. Southbound traffic will be impacted April 5-7 and northbound traffic April 8-13.

 

Motorists should expect delays of approximately 15 minutes from one end of 19th Avenue to the other and are advised to use alternate routes. See attached map.

 

The temporary reduction in lanes is needed to ensure the safety of construction crews, pedestrians and motorists while sewer replacement work is performed at the two intersections. 

 

Traffic control officers will be on site to direct people safely through the two intersections.  We thank you for your patience as we work to maintain and improve our critical City infrastructure.
