Flagstaff To Close Fourth Street Today For Paving

Fourth Street is closed to motorized traffic Tuesday, from the I-40 bridges south to Warm Springs Trail until 7 p.m., for ongoing work as part of the Fourth Street Reconstruction project. The Soliere Avenue and Sparrow Avenue intersections with Fourth Street is also closed, however, access to Summit Park Condos is being maintained. Bicyclists and pedestrians will have continued access through the project site at all times on the FUTS trail and emergency vehicles will be allowed through the project site. The Fourth Street Reconstruction project contractor will use the closure to install a final layer of asphalt pavement. The closure allows the completion of paving and will reduce ongoing impacts to Fourth Street before the reopening of school. Traffic restrictions will continue for several weeks following the pavement placement while pavement striping, valve adjustments, and final project items are completed.
