The 2001 construction season is shaping up to be a busy one for the City of Tumwater. The contractor, Rodarte Construction, Inc. of Auburn, Washington, resumed work on the Cleveland Avenue project during the last week of April.
Punch list items and final cleanup remain.
Since the landscaped areas are not irrigated, plants will likely be postponed until fall and the grass seeded areas will probably need to be reseeded as well. The contractor, J.J. Sprague, Inc. of Puyallup, began mobilization for construction of Henderson Boulevard during the second week of July. Construction will be in full swing within the next two weeks and is expected to continue through December. Use of alternate routes is strongly recommended. The Henderson Boulevard project will widen Henderson Boulevard from the intersection at Yelm Highway to the Tumwater city limits at the Deschutes River bridge.
