Construction crews will be working along the 15th Ave W/NW corridor this week and next. A contractor for the Seattle Department of Transportation will be installing conduit to prepare for the future installation of a traffic camera and signal cabinet upgrade. A release from SDOT says that the contractor will be working today and tomorrow from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. along the inside south bound lane of 15th Ave W at W Emerson St. The inside northbound lane at Leary Ave NW is also closed to work on the northbound ramp to 15th Ave NW.

So wait… they are going to block off the southbound lane during the morning commute? That's unfortunate but I guess it gets too dark to early to have the work done during the evening commute.
