WALLA WALLA COUNTY – The Washington State Department of Transportation and contractor crews will be begin paving sections of State Route 125 today (Tuesday).

Crews will start at the Oregon state line south of College Place and work their way north towards Dalles Military Road where it joins the roundabout tied with South Ninth Avenue and Plaza Way in Walla Walla.

WSDOT said the work will provide a smoother ride and extend the life of the roadway. In addition to paving, crews are improving sections of the adjacent sidewalks and making crosswalks ADA accessible.

Once paving starts, drivers will experience single lane closures and reduced speed limits throughout the construction zone.

Construction crews will be on site day and night and sidewalks and bike lanes will be closed during construction.
