Capitol Square Reconstruction Update

The Findorff tower crane removal at the Anchor Bank site is currently on schedule to be completed on Sunday, March 26, which means West Doty Street should be opened by Sunday night.

On Monday, March 27, inbound West Washington Avenue traffic will be closed at Fairchild Street in order for Capitol Underground to install underground utilities in the West Washington Avenue and Carroll Street intersection. Right turns from North Carroll Street to West Washington Avenue will remain open. Right turns from West Washington Avenue to South Carroll Street will not be allowed. This is expected to last at least two weeks.

Also, beginning on Monday, March 27, inbound Martin Luther King Jr Boulevard traffic will be closed at Doty Street in order for AT&T to install underground utilities at the intersection of Martin Luther King Jr Boulevard and Main Street.
