Lane closures planned next week along Stratford Road

One lane of traffic will be closed each way at the intersections of Valley and Stratford roads, and Walmart Supercenter and WinCo Foods, from 9 p.m. to 7 a.m. March 22-25 for construction.

Drivers are encouraged to use alternative routes, if possible.

After the work is done, some of the traffic lanes and lights will be changed, including a flashing yellow arrow replacing a left turn yield on green for the north and southbound lanes on Stratford Road at the Walmart/WinCo intersection.

The Stratford and Valley roads intersection’s southbound left turn will be a permissive left turn with a yellow arrow, and the northbound will have two protected left turns only. The entrances of Walmart’s and WinCo’s right lanes will be right turns only and the through traffic will combine with the left turns.
