Marysville Public Works advises motorists that 47th Avenue NE from 7th Street to Grove Street will be closed starting Monday, April 12 through Friday, April 16, weather permitting.

General contractor Faber Brothers will reconstruct, grind and pave the section of roadway located near Liberty Elementary and Marysville Middle School.

"The contractor needs a few rain-free days to complete the paving work," explained Doug Buell, Community Information Officer.

Provisions will be made for emergency vehicles and local access to homes and apartments, but all other traffic will be required to use posted detours, Buell said. Public Works staff and the contractor are coordinating with the Marysville School District to minimize traffic inconvenience.

The project is anticipated to be complete by the end of April, adding sidewalks on both sides of the street from Armar Road to Grove, a parking lane, bike lanes, marked crosswalks and drainage improvements, according to Buell.
